IthaID: 4082


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: N/A
Common Name: --LAMPHUN HGVS Name: N/A
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A

Also known as: 27 kb deletion with 9 bp insertion (Lamphun deletion)

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 detected in a young male with deletional HbH disease.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
