We report the genetic data of 435 patients with Hb H (beta 4) disease who presented at our center between 2005 and 2012. Our results showed that all patients had the Southeast Asian deletion (_ _(SEA)) on one allele. The -alpha(3.7) (rightward) deletion was the most common on the other allele, followed by the -alpha(4.2) (leftward) deletion, Hb Constant Spring (Hb CS, alpha 142, Term -> Gln; HBA2: c.427T>C) and Hb Quong Sze [Hb QS, alpha 125(H8)Leu -> Pro; HBA2: c. 377T>C] mutations. Two rare point mutations, alpha 31(B12) Arg -> Lys; HBA2: c.95G>A and Hb Zurich Albisrieden [alpha 59(E8)Gly -> Arg; HBA1: c.178G>C], were also identified. Four patients had a concomitant beta-thalassemia (beta-thal) heterozygosity. Our results reflect the genetic heterogeneity of Hb H disease and the interaction between Hb H disease and beta-thal trait in Southern China.
