title: Hb F-Zhejiang: a Hb F variant due to a novel Ggamma mutation [Ggamma101(G3)Glu-->Gln, GAG>CAG] detected in a Chinese newborn.
abstract: A G>C substitution at position 479 of the (G)gamma-globin gene results in a glutamic acid to glutamine substitution at codon 101 of the (G)gamma-globin chain, a new gamma chain variant that we have named Hb F-Zhejiang [(G)gamma101(G3)Glu-->Gln].
