Abstract
Hemoglobin Kenitra is a new variant of the β chain α2β2 69 (E13) Gly→Arg which does not produce any clinical symptoms. It is a slow-moving hemoglobin with a distinctive pattern of electrophoretic mobilities. The stability test was negative. Oxygen affinity studies were not performed. It was found in association with α-thalassemia and microcytosis, but paradoxically a high expression of the variant (55%) was observed.
