IthaID: 242



Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic
Common Name: CD 120 -A [156 aa] HGVS Name: HBB:c.363delA
Hb Name: Hb Filottrano Protein Info: β 120 (-A); modified C-terminal sequence

Context nucleotide sequence:
GCTGGCCCATCACTTTGGCAA [-/A] GAATTCACCCCACCAGTG (Strand: -)

Also known as: CD 120 AAA>AA-

Comments: Single nucleotide deletion (-A) resulting in a frameshift and the elongation of the β-globin chain to 156 amino acids. Found as a compound heterozygote with Hb C in a patient of undisclosed ethnicity, presenting with severe anaemia. Also found in a heterozygous state in an Italian proband presenting with a β-thalassaemia intermedia phenotype. Reported in literature as HBB:c.361delA, which does not follow the HGVS Sequence Variant Nomeclature recommendations.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
