Genes affected
HBA1 (HGNC:4823): (hemoglobin subunit alpha 1) The human alpha globin gene cluster located on chromosome 16 spans about 30 kb and includes seven loci: 5'- zeta - pseudozeta - mu - pseudoalpha-1 - alpha-2 - alpha-1 - theta - 3'. The alpha-2 (HBA2) and alpha-1 (HBA1) coding sequences are identical. These genes differ slightly over the 5' untranslated regions and the introns, but they differ significantly over the 3' untranslated regions. Two alpha chains plus two beta chains constitute HbA, which in normal adult life comprises about 97% of the total hemoglobin; alpha chains combine with delta chains to constitute HbA-2, which with HbF (fetal hemoglobin) makes up the remaining 3% of adult hemoglobin. Alpha thalassemias result from deletions of each of the alpha genes as well as deletions of both HBA2 and HBA1; some nondeletion alpha thalassemias have also been reported.

The Hb Phnom Penh variant (HBA1: c.353_355dupTCA; p.Phe118_Thr119insIle, also known as Phe117_Thr118insIle when numbered from the mature protein, rs756774032, HbVar ID: 734) is a stable hemoglobin reported in the literature in multiple hematologically normal heterozygous individuals (see HbVar and references therein). This variant has also been reported in an individual with the –SEA alpha globin deletion without exacerbating symptoms (Leung 2006). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 439100) and is found in the East Asian population with an overall allele frequency of 0.04% (7/19796 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant inserts a single isoleucine residue leaving the rest of the protein in-frame. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely benign.
