Hemoglobin G
Active
Description
Hemoglobin G (Hgb G) is a rare hemoglobin variant that results from particular mutations in either the alpha and beta globin chains. The most common Hgb G variant is Philadelphia, an alpha chain mutation occurring most frequently in individuals of African descent. Hgb G is usually clinically benign but may be associated with mild anemia. Hemoglobins exhibit different migration patterns in alkaline versus acidic electrophoresis conditions. So a combination of 2 procedures can be used in tandem to identify the hemoglobin variants. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
