Hb Puttelange [beta 140(H18)Ala-->Val] was found as a de novo mutation in two siblings of a French family suffering from polycythemia. Both parents were phenotypically normal and exclusion of paternity has been ruled out by the study of several polymorphic markers located on different chromosomes. The structural modification of Hb Puttelange was established by reversed-phase HPLC analysis of the tryptic digest of...
