IthaID: 2793



Names and Sequences

Functionality: Disease modifying mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: rs10172646 HGVS Name: NG_011968.1:g.64877C>T

Context nucleotide sequence:
GGACTCTGGGTCAGAGATAACTTAA [A/G] TGTGGTGTTCGGAGTCCTAAGAGCC (Strand: +)

Also known as:

Comments: SNP associated with HbF levels in the general (non-anaemic) population of Sardinia (n=4305 in the initial screen, n=521 in the replication study). It strongly associated with elevated HbF in individuals with sickle cell disease recruited 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).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
