Hemoglobin Sunshine Seth - α2(94 (G1) Asp→His)β2

Abstract
Hemoglobin Sunshine Seth in which a histidyl is substituted for an aspartyl residue at position 94 of the α chain was detected at birth in a Caucasian male infant during cord blood screening and is present also in the mother and a male sibling. Although the substitution is in the α1β2 contact, it is without obvious deleterious effect on the hematological parameters or the health of the affected individuals.
