摘要
目的鉴定1种罕见的β地中海贫血突变类型。方法血液学分析采用血细胞分析仪及全自动快速电泳分析系统;α珠蛋白常规突变检测采用Gap-PCR;β珠蛋白常规突变检测采用反向点杂交法;样品的基因突变及基因型用β珠蛋白基因全长测序技术确定。结果先证者具有典型的β地中海贫血临床特点和血液学特性,HbF为5.8%,其父母各项指标均正常。未发现先证者及其家庭成员有已知的α-/β-地中海贫血基因突变,测序发现先证者及其母亲均为CD2(CAT-CAC)杂合子,父亲为CAC纯合子;先证者有β珠蛋白exon1 CD27(GCC-GAC)突变,编码的氨基酸由丙氨酸变为天冬氨酸,未发现其父母有CD27突变。结论 CD27(GCC-GAC)突变是罕见的β珠蛋白基因点突变,有助于指导人群筛查、遗传咨询和临床诊断。
Objective To identify a rare mutation(GCC-GAC) at codon 27 exon1 of β-globin gene in a β-thalassemia carriers from a Chinese family.Methods Hematological cytoanalyzer and electrophoretic analysis system were used to analysis the phenotype.Gap-PCR was used to detect known mutation of α-globin gene.Known mutation of β-globin gene was detected by reverse dot blot analysis.The β-globin gene was sequenced to identify the genotype and to find out the underlying mutation of the sample.Results The proband presented a typical β-thalassemia intermedia phenotype,and the HbF was 5.8%,and no abnormal parameter were found in other family members.No mutation was detected.The sequencing revealed heterozygosity of codon 2(CAT-CAC) in the proband and her mother;and codon 27(GCC-GAC) mutation heterozygosity at exon1 CD27(GCC-GAC)(Ala-Asp)of β-globin gene in the proband only.Conclusions A rare mutation at exon1 may lead to β-thalassemia.The finding may enrich knowledge of the screening in β-thalassemia as well as the genetic counseling and Clinical diagnosis.
