Also known as:
Comments: The β+45 G>C mutation is found in the Kozak sequence of the β-globin gene at the position -6 upstream the translation initiation codon ATG. Found in a family from Puglia, Italy; assymptomatic in the heterozygotes, worsened hematological phenotype and a more unbalanced β/α biosynthetic ratio in compound heterozygotes. mRNA analysis did not reveal transcriptional alterations, while in vitro experiments demonstrated an impairement of translation by about 30% [PMID: 14687034]. Found as a heterozygote in an Indian individual with no information on hematologic or phenotypic data [PMID: 24099628].
We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
