Abstract
We report a new δ-chain hemoglobin (Hb) variant observed in a 5-year-old female living in Yulin, Guangxi, China. Capillary electrophoresis revealed splitting of the Hb A2 peak into two fractions (Hb A2 and Hb A2 variant), and the Hb A2 variant was also detected by high-performance liquid chromatography. However, it could not be detected using matrix-assisted laser desorption lonization-time of flight mass spectrometry. CD41-42 (-TCTT) heterozygosity was observed on the HBB gene by PCR and reverse dot-blot hybridization. Sanger sequencing showed a new transition (G > A) at codon 46 of the HBD gene, resulting in glycine changing to arginine. Based on the patient's place of residence, the new variant was named Hb A2-Yulin [δ46(CD5)Gly→Arg,HBD:c.139G > A].

The journal covers topics such as:
structure, function, genetics and evolution of hemoglobins
biochemical and biophysical properties of hemoglobin molecules
characterization of hemoglobin disorders (variants and thalassemias),
consequences and treatment of hemoglobin disorders
epidemiology and prevention of hemoglobin disorders (neo-natal and adult screening)
modulating factors
methodology used for diagnosis of hemoglobin disorders
