IthaID: 1533


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: 49.3 kb Gγ(Aγδβ)0 Asian del HGVS Name: NC_000011.10:g.5201244_5250542del
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A

Also known as:

Comments: Detected in seven unrelated Canadian families of Asian Indian ancestry. The adult carriers had mild microcytosis and hypochromia with markedly elevated levels of Hb F. Homozygotes had mild microcytosis without significant anaemia.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
