Haemoglobin J Rovigo 53 alpha (E-2) aspartic acid alanin.

Abstract

The case under examination is an example of a family with Hb J Rovigo interacting with beta thalassemia. Such hemoglobin has the same mobility as J haemoglobin, and the analysis of amino acids showed it to be a variant of the alpha 53 (E2) Alanine-Aspartic chain. The percentage of haemoglobin ranged from around 22.7 to 30.5%.
