IthaID: 2286
Names and Sequences
| Functionality: | Neutral polymorphism | Pathogenicity: | N/A |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common Name: | -473 (A>G) | HGVS Name: | NT_010393.16:g.31478982A>G |
We follow the
HGVS sequence variant nomenclature
and
IUPAC standards.
Context nucleotide sequence:
TAGGGCTCAGTAAACGTCAATTTCCATAGCATTTCGAGCCTGGATACTGA [A/G] ATATGGGGCAAAAAGCAGGAACATGCCCCTGGTTTGGCTCTTGCCTTCTTGCATTTCCTG (Strand: +)
Comments: Apparently neutral polymorphism in the promoter region of AHSP (alpha-haemoglobin stabilizing protein). A case-control study revealed a higher frequency of the A allele in β-thalassemia patients in the Iraqi population.
