IthaID: 3324


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: CD 6 GAG>GTG [Glu>Val]; CD 139 AAT>AGT [Asn>Ser] HGVS Name: HBB:c.[20A>T;419A>G]
Hb Name: Hb S-Wake Protein Info: β 6(A3) Glu>Val AND β 139(H17) Asn>Ser

Also known as:

Comments: Hb S-Wake [β(Glu6Val-Asn139Ser)] found in trans with Hb S [β(Glu6Val)], together with homozygous α+ thalassaemia (-α3.7/-α3.7), in an individual presenting with sickle cell disease. The site of βAsn139 lies within the central cavity proximal to the 2,3-diphosphoglycerate pocket. Asparagine (Asn) possesses nonpolar uncharged side chains, while serine (Ser) exhibits polar uncharged side chains. Substituting Asn with Ser at this position is expected to yield a similar effect without altering the function or stability of the variant hemoglobin (Hb).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
