Sideroblastic anemia: molecular analysis of the ALAS2 gene in a series of 29 probands and functional studies of 10 missense mutations. [PDF]
X-linked Sideroblastic Anemia (XLSA) is the most common genetic form of sideroblastic anemia, a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by iron deposits in the mitochondria of erythroid precursors.

Genome sequencing helped find answers for 1 in 5 children with rare conditions in an outpatient study looking at hybrid genetic care delivery. Families who chose testing themselves had the highest diagnostic yield, showing that self‐referral may be a helpful way to improve access to genetic care.

The role of genetic testing in accurate diagnosis of X-linked sideroblastic anemia: novel ALAS2 mutations and the impact of X-chromosome inactivation. [PDF]
X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) is a hereditary disorder affecting heme biosynthesis, caused by mutations in the ALAS2 gene, which encodes the erythroid-specific enzyme 5-aminolevulinate synthase.

Removal of Toxic Metabolites—Chelation: Manganese Disorders
ABSTRACT Manganese (Mn) overload is a characteristic of multiple disease entities, from acquired manganism upon environmental or occupational overexposure, to end‐stage liver disease and certain genetic disorders. The latter include hypermanganesaemia with dystonia 1 and 2 caused by pathogenic variants in the genes encoding the Mn transporters SLC30A10

Sideroblastic anemia with B-cell immunodeficiency, periodic fevers, and developmental delay (SIFD) is a serious autosomal recessive syndrome caused by biallelic mutations in cytosine–cytosine–adenosine tRNA nucleotidyltransferase 1 (TRNT1).

ABSTRACT Anemia remains a persistent public health challenge in India, disproportionately affecting women and undermining maternal and reproductive health outcomes. Despite nationwide efforts, the burden of anemia continues to vary widely across regions, reflecting complex socio‐demographic determinants.

Missense SLC25A38 variations play an important role in autosomal recessive inherited sideroblastic anemia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Congenital sideroblastic anemias are rare disorders with several genetic causes; they are characterized by erythroblast mitochondrial iron overload, differ greatly in severity and some occur within a syndrome.

Molecular defects of erythroid 5-aminolevulinate synthase in X-linked sideroblastic anemia
The erythroid-specific isozyme of 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2), the first and ratelimiting enzyme of heme biosynthesis, is expressed concomitantly with the differentiation and maturation of the erythroid cell in order to accommodate generation of ...

Assignment of human erythroid [delta]-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2) to a distal subregion of band Xp11.21 by PCR analysis of somatic cell hybrids containing X;Autosome translocations [PDF]
The erythroid-specific (ALAS2) and housekeeping (ALAS1) genes encoding [delta]-aminolevulinate synthase have recently been mapped to chromosomes Xq21.1-->q21 and 3p21, respectively. The erythroid-specific gene is a candidate for mutations resulting in
