IthaID: 177


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic
Common Name: CD 71/72 (+A) HGVS Name: HBB:c.217dupA
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: β 72(+A); modified C-terminal sequence: (72)Lys-COOH

Context nucleotide sequence:
GGCAAGAAAGTGCTCGGTGCCTTT [-/A] AGTGATGGCCTGGCTCACCTGG (Strand: -)

Also known as:

Comments: The introduction of a nt A between codons 71 and 72 (TTTAGT>TTTAAGT) results in a frameshift with a nonsense codon at codon 73 (TGA) and premature termination of translation.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
