Also known as:

Comments: Found in a case with normal haematological indices and no clinical complications. Protein stability was normal and oxygen affinity was found to be slightly increased. Hb variant was detected by capillary electrophoresis during the measurement of HbA1c with the relative amount of Hb Alessandria being 39.9%. Hb variant did not separate from HbA using HPLC method.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
