Hemoglobin K-Woolwich (Hb KW): Its Combination with Sickle Cell Trait
Hemoglobin K-Woolwich (Hb KW) is a rare hemoglobin variant with very few cases reported. It is most prevalent in West African countries, particularly Nigeria, Ghana, and the Ivory Coast. Some reports suggest Hb KW may be a clinically benign trait, whereas others indicate it may behave similarly to a β+ thalassemia. The combination of hemoglobin S and hemoglobin KW (Hb S/KW) is a rare double het...
متن کاملHeterozygote Hemoglobin J Iran in Combination with Hemoglobin H Disease
This is a report concerning a concurrent case of hemoglobin J Iran (Hb J Iran) and Hemoglobin H (Hb H) disease in an Iranian woman. The patient was coincidentally found during the course of routine pre-marital genetic counselling for her son. The diagnosis of heterozygote Hb J Iran for her son, ultimately led to the diagnosis of concurrent Hb J Iran and Hb H disease. The hematological examinati...
متن کاملTwo new sickle cell syndromes: HbS, Hb Camden, and alpha-thalassemia; and HbS in combination with Hb Tacoma.
Hemoglobin variants having electrophoretic mobility more rapid than that of HbA were identified in combination with sickle hemoglobin in two patients at the Cook County Hospital. Neither individual had symptomatic hematologic disease. In one patient, the rapidly migrating hemoglobin had the amino acid substitution characteristic of Hb Tacoma (beta-40 arg leads to ser), a mildly unstable variant...
متن کاملHUMAN GENOME EPIDEMIOLOGY (HuGE) REVIEWS Sickle Hemoglobin (Hb S) Allele and Sickle Cell Disease: A HuGE Review
Sickle cell disease is caused by a variant of the p-globin gene called sickle hemoglobin (Hb S). Inherited autosomal recessively, either two copies of Hb S or one copy of Hb S plus another p-globin variant (such as Hb C) are required for disease expression. Hb S carriers are protected from malaria infection, and this protection probably led to the high frequency of Hb S in individuals of Africa...
متن کاملMutational analysis of sickle haemoglobin (Hb) gelation.
The use of recombinant Hb has provided the advantage that any amino acid substitution can be made at sites not represented by natural mutants or that cannot be modified by chemical procedures. We have recently reported the expression of human sickle Hb (HbS) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that carries a plasmid containing the human alpha- and beta-globin cDNA sequences; N-terminal nascen...
