Genes affected
HBB (HGNC:4827): (hemoglobin subunit beta) The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult hemoglobin, Hb A. The normal adult hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta-zero-thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta-plus-thalassemia. The order of the genes in the beta-globin cluster is 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'.

The Hb Ta-Li variant (HBB: c.250G>T; p.Gly84Cys, also known as Gly83Cys when numbered from the mature protein, rs33930385, HbVar ID: 410) is reported in the literature in several related individuals with no apparent anemia (Blackwell 1971, HbVar database). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.612). A heat stability assay suggests it may be mildly unstable (Blackwell 1971). Further, biochemical characterization indicates that the variant protein oligomerizes through formation of intermolecular disulfide bonds (Fablet 2003, Rai 2002), although these oligomers display normal binding kinetics to carbon monoxide (Fablet 2003). However, as the full functional and clinical effects of this variant have not been characterized, the clinical significance of the p.Gly84Cys variant is uncertain at this time.
