Abstract
Routine hemoglobin (Hb) analyses identified a new ß-globin variant in a family from East Timor. The red cell indices were within normal limits for all affected family members. The variant is due to a missense mutation at amino acid codon 80 (AAC>CAC) which results in the substitution of histidine for asparagine. © 2010 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc.
