First report from Turkey of a rare frameshift mutation [codons 9/10 (+T)] in the beta-globin gene.
Beta-thalassemia (β-thal) is one of the most common autosomal recessive single gene disorders worldwide [1]. At least 200 different mutations in the β-globin gene that result in the β-thal minor and major phenotypes have been described [2,3]. The incidence of β-thal is high in Mediterranean regions, Iran, India, The Arabian Peninsula, Southeast Asia, and Turkey [4]. β-thal is characterized by p...
متن کاملLipoprotein Lipase (LPL) Gene Mutation: A First Report in Children
Genetic hyperchylomicronemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of lipoprotein metabolism estimated to affect approximately one per million individuals. We report a case with a rare mutation identified. It’s a genetic chylomicronemia in a Moroccan newborn baby, with massive hypertriglyceridemia and clinical signs of acute pancreatitis. She was a newborn female, first-degree of consanguineou...
متن کاملIdentification of a Rare Synonymous Beta Globin Mutation, HBB:c.180G>A codon 59 (G>A) in an Iranian Patient
Beta thalassemia is the most common autosomal recessive disorder. The present study reports a rare β globin gene mutation, HBB: c.180G>A: codon 59 (AAG/AAA), in a patient from Gilan province, northern Iran. Nucleotide sequencing of amplified DNA belonging to a 35 years old man presenting mild hypochromia revealed a synonymous mutation due to a G>A conversion at the third position of codon 59 o...
متن کاملA novel frameshift mutation (+G) at codons 15/16 in a beta0 thalassaemia gene results in a significant reduction of beta globin mRNA values.
AIMS To identify a novel beta globin gene mutation found in a Chinese family, and also to assess its functional consequences. METHODS Haematological analysis was performed on all family members. The 23 common mutations of beta thalassaemia found in Chinese populations were detected by means of a reverse dot blot method. Direct DNA sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified comple...
متن کاملThe First Report of a 290-bp Deletion in β-Globin Gene in the South of Iran
Background: β-thalassemia is one of the most widespread disease in the world, including Iran. In this study, we reported, for the first time, A 290-bp β-globin gene deletion in the south of Iran. Methods: Four individuals from three unrelated families with Arabic ethnic background were studied in Khuzestan Province. Red blood cell indices and hemoglobin analysis were carried out accor...
