Also known as:

Comments: Discovered in a person of Sardinian origin with microcytosis and hypochromia, which could be explained by the presence of the poly A mutation HBA2:c.*94A>G. Hb Charolles accounted for 11% of the total hemoglobin. While the histidine residue at position α103(G10) is known to be involved in the α1β1 interchain contacts (Hb Contaldo [IthaID: 698]), there is no evidence to suggest that Hb Charolles alters α1β1 interface to yield unstable haemoglobin.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
