Comments: The mutation results in a frameshift leading to a premature signal in amino acid 60. Found in homozygous state presenting hypochromic microcytic red cells and complete absence of HbA2. The patient also was homozygous for the Hb Knossos [IthaID:91], which was in cis with the δ0 59 (-A) mutation. Also reported in a patient with Hb Knossos/codon 5 [−CT] and β-thalassaemia intermedia.
