Two complex associations of an HBD mutation and a rare α hemoglobinopathy.

Abstract excerpt

We present two case reports in which an HBD mutation is present with a rare α hemoglobinopathy that substantially complicates the associated phenotype. In the first case, a new δ-globin variant, Hb A2-Pierre-Bénite [δ83(EF7)Gly→Arg; HBD: c.250G>C] is associated with Hb Groene Hart [α119(H2)Pro→Ser (α1); HBA1: c.358C>T], an α-thalassemic variant. In the second case, a δ(+)-thalassemic variant, δ4(A1)Thr→Ile; HBD:...
