High Oxygen Affinity Hemoglobin Variant in a Canadian Family: Hb Bunbury [β94(FG1)Asp→Asn, GAC→AAC]

We investigated a three-generation Canadian family in which individuals displayed varying degrees of erythrocytosis due to a high oxygen affinity beta chain hemoglobin (Hb) variant [Hb Bunbury, beta94(FG1)Asp-->Asn, GAC-->AAC]. This is the fourth reported case of Hb Bunbury.
