IthaID: 3072
Names and Sequences
| Functionality: | Neutral polymorphism | Pathogenicity: | N/A |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common Name: | 125 bp deletion | HGVS Name: | NG_000006.1: g.37040_37164del |
We follow the
HGVS sequence variant nomenclature
and
IUPAC standards.
Comments: The deleted 125 bp are part of the α1 gene promoter region. It is an intergenic α2-α1 non-coding DNA deletion, leaving the α2-globin gene and the α1 coding part intact. The patient presented with normal haematological indices.
