IthaID: 4082



Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: --LAMPHUN HGVS Name: NC_000016.10:g.158985_186051delinsCGGGAGGGA
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A
Also known as: 27 kb deletion with 9 bp insertion (Lamphun deletion)

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.

Comments: The Lamphun deletion spans 27 kb on the α-globin gene locus and removes both functional α-globin genes, HBA2 and HBA1, as well as HBZP1, HBM, HBAP1, and HBQ. It was identified in combination with the heterozygous -α³.⁷ deletion [IthaID: 300] in a young male with HbH disease, as well as in the heterozygous state alongside a β-globin gene 3.5 kb deletion [IthaID: 3393], with Hb of 11.6 g/dL, MCV of 70.2 fL, and MCH of 22.9 pg. The deletion was characterized using a combination of MLPA, WGS, GAP-PCR, and direct sequencing.
