| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Genetic analysis of red blood cell (RBC) membrane protein disorders were carried out using next generation sequencing. Solid5500 gave many polymorphisms and mutations, while determination of disease-related genes or a large deletion was difficult. Using Ion PGM twenty kinds of gene of RBC membrane protein were analyzed for 6 patients, and a novel ankyrin gene mutation was found in four. One of them also had an α-spectrin mutation, which may have deteriorated the clinical manifestation. Other two are under search for gene deletion. On genetic analysis of compound heterozygote or gene deletion, like RBC membrane protein disorders, Ion PGM that focuses on the related gene is effective.
