Names and Sequences

Functionality: Globin gene causative mutation Pathogenicity: Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic
Common Name: CD 42 (-TTT) HGVS Name: HBB:c.127_129delTTT
Hb Name: Hb Bruxelles Protein Info: N/A

Context nucleotide sequence:
GGTCTACCCTTGGACCCAGAGGTTC [-/TTT] GAGTCCTTTGGGGATCTGTCCA (Strand: -)

Also known as:

Comments: Reported in a 4-year-old girl with severe chronic hemolytic anaemia and cyanosis. Abnormal haemoglobin variant by IEF and RP-HPLC. Peptide consisted of two phenylalanine residues instead of three in normal β chains (codons 41, 42, and 45). Sequence analysis showed that the β42 residue is missing. Unstable variant by isopropanol stability test. Low oxygen affinity (P50= 41 mmHg).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
