Comments: The c.59A>G variant [β 19(B1) Asn>Ser] is a missense variant in the HBB gene that results in a mild β+ allele phenotype. Both homozygotes and compound heterozygotes with Hb E [ithaID: 88] exhibit mild disease, characterized by severe hypochromic microcytic anaemia, but they do not require blood transfusions. The CD19 AAG>ACG change contributed to thalassaemia by activating a cryptic splice site in this region of the HBB gene.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
