Resumo

In a survey of a Japanese population for abnormal hemoglobins, a new variant of human adult hemoglobin was found: hemoglobin Sawara, in which a residue of aspartic acid in position 6(A4) of the α-chain is replaced by one of alanine. There were no pathological findings associated with this hemoglobin variant.
