Also known as: 27825 bp deletion
Comments: The deletion was reported in six heterozygotes patients of Caucasian origin presented with slightly reduced hematologic indices (MCV 77 fL and MCH 25 pg), and elevated levels of HbA2 (3.9%) and HbF (>20%). Is a 27825 bp deletion with a 25 bp insertion, affecting only the entire β-globin gene, whose breakpoints are very similar to the South East Asian (SEA) deletion breakpoints [IthaID: 2126]. Position of the deletion indicate that the Caucasian deletion is more akin to a β-thal phenotype with raised HbF, because of the deletion of γ-silencing element, HS-1 site, at the 3’ breakpoint.
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
