A Rare Hemoglobin Variant Which Interfered Hemoglobin A1C Result: Hemoglobin South Florida [β1(NA1)Val>Met, GTG>ATG; HBB: c.4G>A] [Hemoglobin A1c Sonucunu Etkileyen Nadir Hemoglobin Varyantı: Hemoglobin South Florida (β1(NA1)Val>Met, GTG>ATG; HBB: c.4G>A)]

Hb South Florida is a rare hemoglobin beta chain variant that is not associated with any clinical disorder. We report a heterozygous Hb South Florida [β1(NA1)Val>Met, GTG>ATG; HBB:c.4G>A] case determined during a premarital screening program. This hemoglobin variant can be identified with high performance liquid chromatography analysis confirmed with DNA sequencing. We emphasize in our study th...

A First Report of Hb Alesha [β67(E11)Val>Met, GTG>ATG] in an Iranian Patient

Background: Hemoglobin (Hb) Alesha is a rare and very unstable Hb variant, resulting in disruption of the heme pocket and producing severe hemolysis in heterozygous statues. In this study, we describe the first report of this variant in an Iranian boy originated from south of Iran with severe hemolytic anemia and mild splenomegaly. Methods: A six-year-old boy from Khuzestan Province and his par...

First observation of Hb Ullevaal [β78(EF2) Leu>Val] in Turkey

So far, more than 800 mutations involving the beta-globin gene have been characterized worldwide. Most of these variants are also carried by patients with Turkish origin, since Turkey is one of the hotspot regions for mutations of the globin genes.1 In the present study, we report a case with an unusual high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) pattern who turned out to be a carrier of the ...

Beta globin gene cluster haplotypes of abnormal hemoglobins observed in Turkey.

Since the first observation of hemoglobin S (Hb S) in Turkey by Aksoy, the number of hemoglobin variants reported was increased. Beta globin gene cluster haplotypes are being used to determine the origin of the mutations under interest. We studied the beta globin gene cluster haplotypes for the six different abnormal hemoglobins which are Hb S, Hb D-Los Angeles, Hb G-Coushatta, Hb E, Hb E-Saska...

Polymerization and instability of a recombinant hemoglobin containing valine beta 7.

A recombinant hemoglobin containing Val beta 7 (Hb beta E7V) was engineered and expressed in yeast to evaluate amino acid specificity of the Glu beta 6-->Val mutation (Hb beta E6V) in promoting polymer formation of deoxyhemoglobin. The purified CO Hb beta E7V migrated as a single band on electrophoresis with a slightly decreased positive charge compared with CO Hb S. The oxygen affinity of Hb b...
