IthaID: 4181

Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: IVS I-9 C>T HGVS Name: HBA1:c.95+9C>T
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A
Also known as:

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.

Context nucleotide sequence:
GGAGGCCCTGGAGAGGTGAGGCT [C/T] CCTCCCCTGCTCCGACCCGGGCTC (Strand: +)

Comments: Identified in a 1-year-old boy presenting with reduced MCV and MCH levels and hypochromic microcytic anaemia. In silico pathogenicity prediction using MutationTaster suggested that this variant may affect protein function and alter splice sites; however, it was classified as a polymorphism by the same predictor.
