Abstract:
:β-Thalassemia (β-thal) is an inherited blood disorder characterized by reduced or absent synthesis of the β chains of hemoglobin (Hb). Although a number of causative mutations have been reported, here we report two novel mutations detected in Chinese patients. Red blood cell (RBC) indices were indicative of β-thal, but no mutations were detected by routine methods. Sequencing of the β-globin gene uncovered one mutant with a 12 bp deletion (TCTGTGTGCTGG) from codon 111 to codon 115 (HBB: c.335-346del12bp) in exon 3. The other was found to be a nonsense mutation at codon 35 (HBB: c.108 C > G). The identification of these novel mutations will facilitate future diagnoses of β-thal caused by either of these mutations and will also be useful for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.
