[Variant analysis of SEC23B gene in 4 families with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia].

OBJECTIVE

To identify the pathogenic variants of 4 patients with hemolytic anemia of unknown cause.

METHODS

Peripheral blood samples of the patients and their family members were collected to extract DNA. The coding region and splice region in all exons of gene of erythrocyte related diseases were analyzed by using target sequence capture and high-throughput sequencing technology. Suspected pathogenic variants were verified by PCR combined Sanger sequencing technology.

RESULTS

Each of the probands was detected two compound heterozygous variants, and CDA II was diagnosed. Six variants were detected in the 4 probands, four variants were reported and the other two were first reported.

CONCLUSION

By high-throughput sequencing, gene variant of CDA II be analyzed fast and accurately. It is an effective supplement to convenional diagnostic methods. Furthermore, the novel variant sites have enriched the variant database of the SEC23B gene.
