Abstract excerpt
We here report a novel case of Hb Headington [β72(E16)Ser→Arg, HBB: c.217A>C, p.Ser73Arg], in a 68-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb) was measured by capillary electrophoresis (CE). The spectrum showed abnormal peaks between the A0 and A2 peaks. DNA sequencing demonstrated a mutation on the HBB gene, which predicted a substitution of serine to arginine at position 73...
