Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Congenital sideroblastic anemias (CSAs) comprise a group of heterogenous genetic diseases that are caused by the mutation of various genes involved in heme biosynthesis, iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis, or mitochondrial solute transport or metabolism. However, approximately 40% of patients with CSA have not been found to have pathogenic gene mutations. In this study, we systematically analyzed the...
