Variants in human KLF1 have been identified as an important causative factor in a wide spectrum of phenotypes. This study investigated two unrelated male children in China who had refractory anemia associated with poikilocythemia. These were accompanied by an upregulation of biochemical markers of hemolysis, along with abnormal hemoglobin (Hb) level and elevated reticulocyte counts. Next-generation sequencing revealed that the patients were compound heterozygotes for a KLF1 frameshift mutation c.525_526insCGGCGCC (p.(Gly176ArgfsTer179)) and one of two missense variants, c.892 G>C (p.(Ala298Pro)) and c.1012C>T (p.(Pro338Ser)). The subjects had microcytic hypochromic anemia, and their healthy parents had single mutation. The two missense mutations affected a highly conserved codon in the zinc finger DNA-binding domain of KLF1, but the protein stability was unaffected in K-562 cells. A KLF1-targeted promoter-reporter assay showed that the two mutations reduce the expression of the HBB, BCL11A, and CD44 genes involved in erythropoiesis, with consequent dyserythropoiesis and an α/non-α chain imbalance. A systematic analysis was performed of the phenotypes associated with the KLF1 mutations in the two families, and the clinical characteristics and differential diagnoses of the disease are presented. This is the first report of an autosomal recessive anemia presenting with microcytic hypochromia, abnormal Hb profile, and other distinctive erythrocyte phenotypes, and provides insight into the multiple roles of KLF1 during erythropoiesis."xsd:string
