Also known as: Hb Bristol-Alesha

Comments: Valine changes to a methionyl residue at position β67(E11). This Hb is also called Hb Bristol since in a fraction of the variant the methionine is modified into an aspartic acid by a posttranslational modification. This replacement disrupts the apolar bonds between the valine and the heme group, producing an unstable Hb and severe hemolysis.
