Also known as:

Comments: Leu>Arg substitution at position β106 (G8) associated with disruption of the heme pocket and heme loss. Presented with a severe Heinz body haemolytic anaemia and globin chain imbalance. Reported in a heterozygous state in a family with a severe, dominantly inherited β-thalassemia phenotype. Extremely unstable variant; its identity could only be studied by biosynthetic analysis in which a radio-active abnormal peak was observed. Isopropanol and heat stability tests were inconclusive [PMID: 429365, 447835].

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
