Comments: The deletion spans at least 271 kb on the α-globin gene cluster. The 5' breakpoint is located within a ~4.8 kb region in the NPRL3 gene, upstream of the distal regulatory elements, and the 3′ breakpoint is located within a ~610 kb region between the TMEM8A and SOX8 genes.
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
