First observation of Hb D-Ouled Rabah [beta19(B1)Asn>Lys] in the Turkish population
Abstract:
Hb D-Ouled Rabah [beta19(B1)Asn>Lys] is a rare hemoglobin (Hb) beta chain variant reported from Tuareg tribes in Algeria and once from China. It was suggested that Hb D-Ouled Rabah might be specific of Berber-speaking populations. Our report describes the first observation of this hemoglobin variant in the Turkish population.
