Pathogenic variants in five erythrocyte membrane structure-related genes ANK1 (Spherocytosis, type 1; MIM#182900), SPTB (Spherocytosis, type 2; MIM#616649), SPTA1 (Spherocytosis, type 3; MIM#270970), SLC4A1 (Spherocytosis, type 4; MIM#612653) and EPB42 (Spherocytosis, type 5; MIM#612690) have been confirmed to be related to HS. This evidence concerns the gene SLC4A1 and hereditary spherocytosis type 3.
