Hb Midnapore [β53(D4)Ala→Val; HBB: c.161C>T]: A Novel Hemoglobin Variant with a Structural Abnormality Associated with IVS-I-5 (G>C) (HBB: c.92+5G>C) Found in a Bengali Indian Family

Abstract: We describe a novel C>T substitution at codon 53 of the HBB gene (HBB: c.161C>T). The proband was a transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia major (β-TM) patient. DNA was extracted and subsequently, DNA sequencing was done to detect the mutations on the HBB gene. Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) revealed the presence of an unknown peak. She inherited this mutation from her grandmother through her mother. This mutation exists in cis with the common β mutation IVS-I-5 (G>C) (HBB: c.92+5G>C). The proband is homozy… Show more

“…The first group was α‐ or β‐thalassemia variants. The second group was the abnormal hemoglobin variants (Hbs), which may lead to clinical phenotypes, including common variants Hb S ( HBB :c.20A>T), Hb E ( HBB :c.79G>A), and rare Hb variants, such as Hb Midnapore ( HBB :c.161C>T; H. Liu et al, ; Panja, Chowdhury, & Basu, ; Ware, de Montalembert, Tshilolo, & Abboud, ). The benign Hb variants which account for the largest proportion were not included.…”

“…A novel β chain variant Hb Midnapore [β Codon 53 (C→T)] (HBB:c.161C>T)along with β‐thalassemia was reported in a 3‐year‐old girl with a β‐thalassemia major phenotype who was on regular blood transfusions since the age of 11 months from West Bengal 54 . On capillary electrophoresis an unknown peak adjacent to HbA 0 was observed in the proband, her sister, mother and grandmother.…”

“…53 A novel β chain variant Hb Midnapore [β Codon 53 (C!T)] (HBB: c.161C>T)along with β-thalassemia was reported in a 3-year-old girl with a β-thalassemia major phenotype who was on regular blood transfusions since the age of 11 months from West Bengal. 54 On capillary electrophoresis an unknown peak adjacent to HbA 0 was observed in the proband, her sister, mother and grandmother. On DNA sequencing of the β-globin gene, the proband was homozygous for the IVS 1-5 (G>C) (HBB:c.92 + 5G>C) β-thalassemia mutation On family screening, his father showed a P3 peak of 37.4% (RT:…”

“…On the other hand, her grandmother, mother, and sister all possessed this novel mutation cis with the heterozygous HBB: c.92+5G>C. They are carriers but not thalassemic. This mutation produces the substitution β53 Ala→Val; HBB: c.161C>T, new structural hemoglobin (Hb) variant [19].…”
