Thalassemia is one of the most common single-gene disorder worldwide. An important genetic cause of thalassemia is copy number variations (CNVs) in the α-globin gene cluster. However, there is no unified summary and discussion on the detailed information and mechanisms of these CNVs. In this study, two novel CNVs, a tandem duplication (αααα159) and deletion (--259), were identified in two Chinese families with thalassemia patients, according to the results of hematologic analysis, routine genetic testing for thalassemia, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other molecular methods. Co-inherited with βCD41–42mutation and --SEAdeletion separately, αααα159and --259resulted in a patient with β-thalassemia intermedia and a lethal fetus with Hb Bart’s hydrops fetalis syndrome, respectively. Next, a literature review was performed to summarize all known CNVs involving the α-globin gene cluster. The molecular structure characteristics of these CNVs were analyzed and the possible mechanism was explored. It is the first time to analyze the generation mechanism of genome arrangements in the α-globin gene cluster systematically.
