We report a novel mutation at codon 24 of the α2-globin gene (HBA2: c.75T > A) found in a Sundanese family. This novel mutation was detected during prenatal diagnosis. The couple already had a 7-year-old boy who exhibited clinically severe α-thalassemia intermedia (α-TI), and he was found to be a compound heterozygote for the novel mutation at codon 24 and the previously described Hb Adana (HBA2: c.179G > A) at codon 59 of the α2-globin gene. The father was a carrier of the novel point mutation and showed normal hemoglobin (Hb) and a low mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular Hb (MCH) value.
我们报告了在一个巽他族家庭中发现的α2-珠蛋白基因第24密码子处的一个新突变(HBA2:c.75T > A)。这个新突变是在产前诊断期间检测到的。这对夫妇已经有一个7岁的男孩,他表现出临床严重的中间型α地中海贫血(α-TI),并且被发现是α2-珠蛋白基因第24密码子处的新突变与先前描述的α2-珠蛋白基因第59密码子处的Hb Adana(HBA2:c.179G > A)的复合杂合子。父亲是这个新的点突变的携带者,血红蛋白(Hb)正常,平均红细胞体积(MCV)和平均红细胞血红蛋白(MCH)值较低。
