Abstract excerpt
A new silent hemoglobin variant, Hb Ozieri (alpha 71(E20)Ala-->Val), was observed in five apparently unrelated newborn babies during a screening for hemoglobinopathies on the island of Sardinia. This asymptomatic variant was detected by means of isoelectric focusing (IEF), isolated using IEF in an immobilized ultranarrow pH-gradient and characterized at the structural level using FAB- and electrospray-mass...
