Also known as:
Comments: SNP associated with variation in F-cell numbers in individuals of African ancestry with sickle cell disease (SCD) from the Silent Infarct Transfusion (SIT) Trial cohort (n=440). It strongly associated with elevated HbF in individuals with SCD acquired from the Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease (CSSCD), the Comprehensive Sickle Cell Centers Collaborative Data (CDATA) study and the Thomas Jefferson University (n=254). It also associated with varying levels of HbF in patients of Saudi Arab (from Eastern Province) origin with SCD. Homozygosity for the C allele associated with increased HbF in African American Benin haplotype patients (study sample from CSSCD).
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
