Also known as:

Comments: Found as a heterozygote associated with a beta-thal mutation. Observed in a child with clinical symptoms of thalassemia at an age of 6 months, with fever and pallor. The child only survived for 11 months with two transfusions occurring within survival period. This deletion results in a stop codon after third position of the growing amino-acid chain, purportedly leading to β0 condition from that allele.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
