Also known as:

Comments: Found as a heterozygote with mild α-thalassaemia phenotype, microcytosis and abnormal haemoglobin stability features. Hb Rogliano showed an intrinsic instability of the tetramer due to anomalous intra- and inter-chain interactions suggesting that the variant chain is normally synthesized and complexed with AHSP but rapidly degraded because it is unable to form the α1β1 dimers.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
