Hemoglobin variants occur when there are mutations in specific genes that code for the protein chains, known as globins, which make up the hemoglobin molecule. This leads to amino acid substitutions in the hemoglobin molecule that could affect the structure, properties, and/or the stability of the hemoglobin molecule.

Hemoglobin D (HbD) is a variant of hemoglobin, a protein complex that makes up red blood cells. Based on the locations of the original identification, it has been known by several names such as hemoglobin D-Los Angeles , hemoglobin D-Punjab , [ 1 ] D-North Carolina , D-Portugal , D-Oak Ridge , and D-Chicago. [ 2 ]
Within the medical specialty of hematology, Hemoglobin D-Punjab, also known as hemoglobin D-Los Angeles, [1] D-North Carolina, D-Portugal, D-Oak Ridge, and D-Chicago, [2] is a hemoglobin variant. It originates from a point mutation in the human β-globin locus and is one of the most common hemoglobin variants worldwide. [ 1 ]
Hemoglobin Lepore syndrome is typically an asymptomatic hemoglobinopathy, which is caused by an autosomal recessive genetic mutation.The Hb Lepore variant, consisting of two normal alpha globin chains (HBA) and two delta-beta globin fusion chains which occurs due to a "crossover" between the delta (HBD) and beta globin (HBB) gene loci during meiosis and was first identified in the Lepore ...
These two variants have distinctions with the alpha and beta-globin chains. HbA2 is a vital component for screening programs targeting beta-thalassemia and hemoglobin pathogens. Typically the normal HbA2 levels range from 2.1% to 3.2%, but these values may change based on individual factors and different hemoglobin or hematological patterns. [3]

Hemoglobin G, Hemoglobin G-Philadelphia, or hbG, is a mutation of the cells that oxygenate blood. The G-Philadelphia variant is most commonly found in African Americans, with carriers being every 1 in 5,000. [1] The trait is normal-functioning and has no known negative effects. [2]
