Abstract
Hemoglobinopathy was detected in a 72-year-old female with basal cell carcinoma of the genial region during high-performance liquid chromatography of hemolysate for the assay of HbA1c. Structural analysis demonstrated that this abnormal hemoglobin was identical to Hb Hope [beta 136(H14)Gly----Asp]. No clinical or hematological abnormality was observed. A study of the family revealed that a younger sister and two sons of the propositus had the same hemoglobin variant. This is the second observation of Hb Hope in a Japanese family.
