Some Rare Hemoglobin Variants with Altered Oxygen Affinities; Hb Linkoping [β36(C2)Pro→Thr], Hb Caribbean [β91(F7)Leu→Ar6], and Hb Sunnybrook [β 36(C2)Pro→Arg]

Abstract

A few rare hemoglobin variants with altered functional properties have been observed in Canadian subjects with either an erythrocytosis or mild anemia. These variants were Hb Alberta [beta 101(G3)Glu----Gly], Hb Linkoping [beta 36(C2)Pro----Thr], a new variant Hb Sunnybrook [beta 36(C2)Pro----Arg], and Hb Caribbean [beta 91(F7)Leu----Arg]. Short clinical descriptions of the subjects are given, the characterization of the variants is described …
