    Abstract:
    Hemoglobin Chongqing is a new slowly-moving and unstable hemoglobin variant with a high oxygen affinity, that was discovered in five members of a Chinese family in the suburb of Chongqing. Hemoglobin Harbin is another new rapidly-moving hemoglobin variant with slightly reduced stability and slightly increased oxygen affinity, found in a Chinese woman living in Harbin. The relative amounts of these two variants in the propositi were about 9% and 18%, respectively. Sequence analyses identified a Leu----Arg substitution at position alpha 2(NA2) of Hb Chongqing, and a Lys----Met substitution at position alpha 16(A14) of Hb Harbin.
