Table 3 Known functions/pathways of a normal and pathological gene product of affected genes

From: A rare mutation (p.F149del) of the NT5C3A gene is associated with pyrimidine 5′-nucleotidase deficiency

Gene name

Known functions/pathways of normal and pathological gene products of affected genes that are potentially important for the HA phenotype in the studied family

NT5C3A

Pyrimidine and purine metabolism (REACTOME, KEGG); catalyze the dephosphorylation of nucleoside 5′-monophosphates; mutations in this gene are a cause of hemolytic anemia due to uridine 5′-monophosphate hydrolase deficiency; An important paralog of this gene is NT5C3B; expression in erythroblasts and CD71++++ cells

TYMP

Pyrimidine metabolism (REACTOME, KEGG); catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of thymidine; predicted interaction of TYMP and SCO2 genes products; expression in erythroblasts

SCO2

Pyrimidine deoxyribonucleoside degradation; predicted interaction of TYMP and SCO2 gene products; expression in erythroblasts

PUDP

Pyrimidine metabolism (REACTOME, KEGG); dephosphorylates pseudouridine 5-phosphate, a potential intermediate in rRNA degradation, and pseudouridine is then excreted intact in urine; expression in erythroblasts

HCFC1

Host cell factor; diseases associated with HCFC1 include methylmalonic acidemia and homocysteinemia (inherited in an X-linked manner); expression in erythroblasts

GEMIN8

mRNA processing; expression in erythroblasts

POLE

2′-Deoxyribonucleoside-5′-triphosphate: DNA deoxynucleotidyltransferase; participates in DNA repair and chromosomal DNA replication; expression in erythroblasts

XK

The kx blood-group antigen (kxa) family; diseases associated with XK include Mcleod neuroacanthocytosis syndrome and choreoacanthocytosis; expression in erythroblast and GPA++

RAD51C

Fanconi anemia group O, expression in erythroblasts and GPA++ cells

  1. Developed based on data collected in the GeneCards database. Expression of the genes in erythroblasts [53]; erythroid cell lines and/or CD71++++ and GPA++ type cells [based on the GeneCards Database and UniGene NCBI database: CD71++++ library (Lib,8975) and GPA++ library (Lib,11923)]
