IthaID: 4148

Names and Sequences

Functionality: Disease modifying mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: αααα102 HGVS Name: NC_000016.10:g.79903_181947dup

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.

Comments: Identified as de novo mutation along with the IVS I-1 (G>T), in a male child presented with non-transfusion-dependent thalassemia, moderate anaemia (Hb 7.3 g/dL) and abnormal haematological indices (HbA2 3.7%, HbF 18.8%, RBC 3.6 10^12/L, MCV 68 fL, MCH 20.4 pg). The detected duplication spans approximately 102 kb and includes the entire α-globin gene cluster, the regulatory region HS-40, the NPRL3 gene and part of the MPG gene. The number of α globin genes is increased from four to six. The exact breakpoint was determined by long-range PCR after MLPA and Whole Exome CNV estimation.
