IthaID: 78


Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic
Common Name: CD 17 (+A) HGVS Name: HBB:c.53dup
Hb Name: N/A Protein Info: N/A

Context nucleotide sequence:
GTTACTGCCCTGTGGGGCAA [-/Α] GGTGAACGTGGATGAAGTTG (Strand: -)

Also known as:

Comments: The insertion found in an Italian girl associated with the deletion of the 13.4-kb δβ-globin gene region. The insertion of a nt A in codon 17 creates a shift in the reading frame with a premature stop codon at codon 22 (TGA).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
