Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia due to abnormalities of the red blood cell (RBC) membrane skeleton. In the original HPP kindred, there is compound heterozygosity for an allele encoding a structural variant of alpha-spectrin (L207P) and an alpha-spectrin allele associated with a defect in alpha-spectrin production. To identify the molecular defect in the production-defective allele, reticulocyte alpha-spectrin cDNA from one of the original HPP patients was analyzed. Transcripts from the production-defective, non-L207P allele demonstrated a pattern of abnormal splicing between exons 22 and 23, resulting in insertion of intronic fragments with an in-frame premature termination codon. A G to A substitution at position +5 of the donor consensus splice site of IVS 22 was identified in the inserts. Following gene transfer into tissue culture cells, there was complete absence of normally spliced alpha-spectrin gene transcripts derived from a minigene containing the IVS 22 +5 mutation.
