Also known as: Hb Zurich

Comments: Detected in a compound heterozygous state with a clinical phenotype resembling that of beta thalassaemia intermedia. Carriers have a mild course of disease, presenting with acute haemolysis after exposure to an oxidant agent. Unstable variant due to replacement of the distal histidine of the beta-chain by an arginine residue.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
