IthaID: 3265
Names and Sequences
| Functionality: | Disease modifying mutation | Pathogenicity: | N/A |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common Name: | α-globin cluster triplication | HGVS Name: | NC_000016.10:g.(53322_113530)_(181203_206337)dup |
Also known as:
Comments: Triplication of the entire α-globin gene cluster and the regulatory region (HS-40) of the α-globin gene. Found in combination with heterozygous β-thalassaemia, resulting in a clinical presentation of thalassaemia intermedia. Identified by whole exome sequencing.
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.

In silico pathogenicity prediction
Note:
The impact thresholds provided in this section are based on the analyses performed in Tamana et.al. For any given tool, the impact thresholds defined for the set of variants with the same effect on function as the variant examined, are preferred over those defined for the full dataset.
