Comments: Hb F-M Viseu associates with the methemoglobin (Met-Hb) phenotype. The mutation occurs in the γ-globin chain, hence the methaemoglobinaemia is transitory, resolving with the transition from fetal to adult haemoglobin. It was first reported in neonates with cyanosis.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
