ABSTRACT
Hb G-San Jose or b7(A4)Glu!Gly has been reported in Southern Italian or
Mexican families. We have studied four families from Sicily and Campania,
Southern Italy. In six carriers, the hemoglobin variant level ranged from 32 to
38%. In four double heterozygotes for Hb G-San Jose and a-thalassemia the
variant level showed a strong correlation with the a-thalassemia genotype. In
fact, the variant level was 15% when interacting with the � (a)20.5=aa, 19.6%
with the aa=aPoly Aa, and 24.8% with aa=a�5 nta genotypes. In two double
heterozygotes for Hb G-San Jose and bþ -IVS-I-6 (T!C) the hemoglobin
variant level was 67%. These data show that the reduced synthesis of a chains
causes drastic reduction of probability to form Hb G-San Jose in favor of the
formation of Hb A. Moreover, this reduction, (i) correlates with the type of
a-thalassemia genotype and with the degree of the a chain deficiency, and
(ii) is, most probably, more marked than the degree of a chain reduction. The
minor affinity of the b chain variant for the a chains associated with the

reduced synthesis of the a chains is probably the principal cause of the variant
hemoglobin reduction. Moreover, the rapid removal of the abnormal chains by
proteolytic enzymes must have an essential role in order to reduce the chain
variant pool. These conclusions are in agreement with the results obtained in
reticulocyte and in vitro recombination experiments.
INTRODUCTION
Hb G-San Jose [b7(A4)Glu!Gly] was first characterized in Californian
family of Italian origin in 1957 (1,2). The variant is rare and shows an exclusive
epidemiological distribution; in fact, it has only been reported in a few families of
Southern Italian (3–7) or of Mexican heritage (8,9). Carriers have no hematolo-
gical disorders (3,4,6,7). Studies of functional properties confirmed that the Bohr
effect and the oxygen affinity of the hemoglobin (Hb) variant are identical to
normal Hb A (10). The variant is slightly less stable than Hb A in isopropanol (4,5)
and heat stability (5,10) tests.
The percentage of Hb variant ranged from 32 to 37% in the carriers (3,4,6,7).
Interaction with Hb Fukuoka [b2(NA2)His!Tyr] did not change the Hb G-San
Jose concentration; in fact, the level of the two variants were 58 and 33%,
respectively (9). By contrast, interaction with b- or a-thalassemia (thal), reported in
a Sicilian family (5), determined pronounced variations. In a healthy com-
pound heterozygote with b0-thal, the variant level was 91% and the Hb level
was 13.0 g=dL; in two double heterozygotes with a-thal the variant range was
13–14% (5).
This article provides new data giving more insights into the role of a-thal
mutants in determining the level of Hb G-San Jose in peripheral blood.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Hematological parameters were obtained by standard methods. Qualitative
and quantitative analysis of Hb was performed by cation exchange high perfor-
mance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (DIAMATTM or VARIANTTM Systems,
Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA).
DNA from white blood cells was purified with a standard method. Point
mutations of the b- and a-globin genes were detected by DNA polymerase chain
reaction (PCR)-direct sequencing performed as previously reported (11). a-Thal
deletions were tested with gap-PCR (12). Point mutations of the a-globin genes
were identified by means of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) (13)
and confirmed with DNA sequencing [AATAAA!AATAAG of the a2 gene
(polyadenylation signal or poly A)] or HphI digestion [5 nucleotide (5 nt) deletion
at the IVS-I donor site (GAGGTGAGG!GAGG- - - - -) in the a2 gene]. b-Thal
mutations were identified by PCR-amplification refractory mutation system
(ARMS) (14). Oligonucleotides used as primers are reported in Table 1.

RESULTS
We studied four unrelated families (Table 2) originating from Campania
(Families 1 and 4) and from East Sicily (Families 2 and 3), two regions of Southern
Italy. The four probands and some members of their families were carriers of a Hb
variant with the chromatographic features of Hb G-San Jose, values ranging from
15 to 67% of the total Hb (Table 2). Moreover, they showed microcytosis and
hypochromia associated with increased Hb A2 levels ranging from 3.5 to 5.0%
(Table 2).
DNA sequencing of the first exon of the b-globin gene of all probands led to
the detection of the GAG!GGG change in codon 7 (Fig. 1), corresponding to the
amino acid substitution Glu!Gly present in the Hb G-San Jose mutation (15).
The gap-PCR analysis of the a-globin genes revealed that the proband
of Family 1 and one of the two sisters were carriers of the a0-thal deletion
�(a)20.5 (16).
DGGE indicated that the probands of Families 2 and 3 were carriers of the
poly A (AATAAA!AATAAG) (17,18) and the �5 nt (19,20) mutations,
respectively. The first mutation was confirmed by DNA sequencing; the second
by HphI digestion of the relative amplified PCR fragment.
Molecular screening forb-thal mutations revealed that the proband of Family 4,
the mother and two sisters, were carriers of the bþ-IVS-I-6 (T!C) mutation.
DISCUSSION
We studied four unrelated families and encountered six carriers of Hb G-San
Jose, four double heterozygotes for the Hb variant and a-thal, two compound
heterozygotes for the variant and bþ-thal. In the six carriers the Hb variant level
ranged from 32 to 38% (average 35%); these values are in agreement with those

reported in the literature (3,4,6,7). In the four double heterozygotes for a-thal and
Hb G-San Jose the variant level ranged from 15 to 24.8%.
In Family 1, the proband and her son showed 15% of the Hb variant, that is
about 45% of the average value found in the carriers. Both patients were double
heterozygotes for the Hb variant and for the �(a)20.5 deletion that causes a defect
similar to a null mutation of a single locus gene. It produces an a=b chain
biosynthetic ratio of about 0.5 (21), that means about a 50% deficit of the a chain
synthesis.
In Family 2, the proband had 19.6% of the Hb variant, that is slightly higher
than 50% of the average value in the carriers. He was a double heterozygote for the
Hb variant and for the poly A (a2) (AATAAA!AATAAG) mutation that causes
synthesis of extended transcripts with a new signal 30 to the normal poly A site,
and production of nonfunctional, unstable mRNA (17,18). Even if this mutation
alters only one of the two a-globin genes of a single cluster, it produces a defect of
intermediate severity between aþ- and a0-thal, leading to mild phenotype altera-
tions in carriers, and to an anemic syndrome with hematological and clinical
features similar to Hb H (b4) disease in the homozygote (18,21).
In Family 3, the proband had 24.8% of the Hb variant, that is about 70% of
the average value in the carriers. He was a double heterozygote for the 5 nt deletion
at the IVS-I donor site of the a2 gene that causes abnormal RNA splicing, and
likely produces a most mild defect of synthesis of a chains (21), certainly more
minor than that due to the poly A (a2) (AATAAA!AATAAG) mutation found in
Family 2. This was confirmed by the fact that this mutation can cause Hb H disease
only in trans to an a0-thal mutation.

In Family 4, there were two patients who were double heterozygotes for the
bþ-IVS-I-6 (T!C) and Hb G-San Jose mutations. In these cases the Hb variant
increased to 67%. This is due to the decreased synthesis of the b chains that leads
to a relative excess of the a chains.
In the Hb G-San Jose carriers the average value of the Hb variant is 35%. The
minor affinity of the b chain variant for the a chains most likely plays an important
role in controlling the Hb variant level. The slight instability (4,5) may have only a
marginal role, considering that a homozygous patient did not show hemolytic
anemia syndrome and had 14.5 g=dL of total Hb (4). The results reported here
clearly indicate that, in the double heterozygote patients of Families 1, 2, and 3,
the reduced synthesis of a chains causes drastic reduction of probability to form
Hb G-San Jose. Moreover, these data document that the degree of reduction of
probability, (i) correlates with the degree of the a chains deficiency, and (ii) is,
most probably, more marked than the degree of the a chain reduction. The
reduction of the Hb variant is firstly due to the minor affinity of the b chain
variant for the a chains. Moreover, the rapid removal of the abnormal chains by
proteolytic enzymes must have an essential role in order to reduce the chain variant
pool. These conclusions confirm in vivo the results obtained in reticulocytes and in
vitro recombination experiments that indicated that the Hb G-San Jose chains
exhibit a minor affinity (relative to bA chains) for complementary a chains, and
that preferential removal of abnormal chains might play an important role (22,23).
