    Abstract:
    During a routine hematological investigation, a slowly-moving hemoglobin variant was detected in a 2-year-old child from Maputo (Mozambique) in combination with hemoglobin S. Structural studies carried out by HPLC demonstrated a previously unreported amino acid substitution, beta 47 (CD6) Asp replaced by Tyr. The new hemoglobin variant has been named hemoglobin Maputo.
