ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV005229811 SCV005875378 likely benign not provided 2024-05-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The Hb Siam/Hb Ottawa variant (HBA1/HBA2: c.46G>C; p.Gly16Arg), also known as Gly15Arg when numbered from the mature protein, rs35816645, HbVar ID:18, ClinVar Variation ID: 15797) is reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with no clinical features with normal hematology (Huang 2011, Lou 2014, Yodsowan 2000), or whose hematological abnormality is attributed to another genetic cause (Zhao 2021). Abnormal electrophoresis results have been described for this variant (Hb Var Database). This variant is absent from 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: 0.590). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely benign.
