Abstract
A 2½-year-old male child and a 23-year-old woman with no clinical symptoms were investigated during routine consultations. Cation exchange high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed an additional peak eluting before Hb A. DNA sequencing showed a novel heterozygous mutation at codon 20 of the α1-globin gene. The hemoglobin (Hb) variant was named Hb Brugg. Analysis of oxygen affinity Hb and Hb stability did not show any changes compared to normal Hb constellation.Entities:
