Hemoglobins Aida (alpha 64 Asp leads to Asn) and D-Los Angeles (beta 121 Glu leads to Gln) in an Asian-Indian family.
Hemoglobins D-Los Angeles (beta 121 Gln) and Aida (alpha 64 Asn) were encountered in an Asian Indian, unassociated with any clinical manifestations. These hemoglobins had normal oxygen affinities and were stable to heat and isopropanol. The ratio of alpha chain synthesis to beta chain synthesis was close to unity. The identical change in isoelectric points of the two variants produced an interesting electrophoretic pattern.
