Abstract

We have identified a variant on the β-globin gene in a Chinese female. Sequencing of the HBB gene revealed a Phe→Leu substitution at codon 42[β42(CD1) Phe→Leu, HBB:c.129T > A] which has been named Hb Suqian for where the proband was born.

Keywords: Hb Suqian; Hemoglobin (Hb) variant; high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).
