Popis: This is a report of a novel variant of the α1-globin gene—(α1) α51 Gly > Cys (CE9), c.154 GGC > TGC, named Hb Mazandaran, which was observed in an Iranian family. This variant gives rise to a previously undescribed haemoglobin variant that was undetectable by capillary haemoglobin electrophoresis (CE). This variant was detected in two cases in combination with β-globin mutation, and it does not seem to be associated with severe haematological abnormalities in the carriers.
