Names and Sequences
| Functionality: | Globin gene causative mutation | Pathogenicity: | N/A |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common Name: | Senegalese δ(0)β(+) | HGVS Name: | NG_000007.3:g.(63154_63209)_(70570_70625)del7417 |
| Hb Name: | N/A | Protein Info: | deletion of 7417 nts from the δ gene to β gene |
Also known as:
Comments: The new δβ hybrid gene is expressed at low level, very likely due to the weak δ-globin promoter.
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
