| Abstract: | A new variant of the normal minor component Hb A(2) has been detected in a family that lives in Sphakiá, Crete. Chemical studies of this abnormal hemoglobin, designated Hb A(2) delta Sphakiá, indicates a substitution of the histidyl residue number two of the delta-chain by an arginyl residue. |
