IthaID: 4168

Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: -ζ10.7 kb HGVS Name: NC_000016.10:g.154355_165114del
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A
Also known as: Nanning deletion

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.

Comments: Identified in a 31-year-old female presenting with normal haematological parameters. Third-generation sequencing revealed a 10.7 kb deletion along with a homozygous point mutation (NG_000006.1:g.30717T>C; rs2258435) in the upstream region of HBA2 gene. The deletion is located within the HBZ and HBZP1 genes and is associated with a silent carrier phenotype.
