We follow the
HGVS sequence variant nomenclature
and
IUPAC standards.
Context nucleotide sequence:
GCTGGCCCATCACTTTGGCAA [-/A] GAATTCACCCCACCAGTG (Strand: -)
Comments: Single nucleotide deletion (-A) resulting in a frameshift and the elongation of the β-globin chain to 156 amino acids. Found as a compound heterozygote with Hb C in a patient of undisclosed ethnicity, presenting with severe anaemia. Also found in a heterozygous state in an Italian proband presenting with a β-thalassaemia intermedia phenotype. Reported in literature as HBB:c.361delA, which does not follow the HGVS Sequence Variant Nomeclature recommendations.
