IthaID: 2679


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Disease modifying mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: rs17728960 HGVS Name: NC_000020.11:g.51513177T>C

Context nucleotide sequence:
AAGTTTTTAAATCATATATTGGATC [C/T] TCAAAGTTACAGGCACTTGGGCCAC (Strand: +)

Also known as:

Comments: SNP associated with acute chest syndrome in the Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease (CSSCD) (n=1901). Follow-up validation studies replicated the association in individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD) acquired from the Georgia Health Sciences University (GHSU) Sickle Cell Center (n=318) but not in an independent SCD cohort acquired from the Duke University (n=449).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
