We report a new hemoglobin (Hb) variant that we have named Hb Wanjiang ( HBB : c.255_264delinsCTCAG). We identified this variant in a Chinese man by the next-generation sequencing (NGS) method. The father of the proband also carried the same variant. This variant results from a 10 bp deletion at codons 84–87 of the β-globin chain, replaced with 10 nucleotides coming from the δ-globin gene at the same position, leading to the substitution of two amino acids in the peptide chain with no change in the β-globin chain length. The heterozygotes had a normal hematological feature with no abnormal Hb variant detectable on capillary electrophoresis (CE) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The combination of Hb Wanjiang and β-thalassemia (β-thal) was not found to aggravate anemia.
