Comments: The deletion spans about 6.8 kb on the α-globin gene cluster, removing almost the entire α2 and α1 genes. Breakpoints were determined. A 2538 bp deletion (NG_000006.1:g.35801_38338) existed in this deletion by comparison to the -α4.2, as well as a 29 bp insertion (NG_000006.1: g.34497_34527) into the deletion junction, which was derived from the 3' terminal of the α2 coding gene sequence during the recombination events that led to this deletion.
