IthaID: 4066


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: 10.8 kb deletion HGVS Name: NC_000011.10:g.5216601_5227407del
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A

Also known as:

Comments: The deletion spans 10.8 kb on the beta-globin gene locus removing the whole HBB gene. Deletion breakpoints were determined by long-read sequencing and were confirmed by MLPA and GapPCR methods. Heterozygosity occurs with beta-thalassemia minor.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
