he·mo·glo·bin S

[MIM*141900] an abnormal Hb with substitution of a valyl residue for a glutamyl residue at the sixth position of the β chain; the formula is α₂^Aβ₂^S, or, more specifically, α₂^Aβ₂^6Glu→Val. Heterozygous state: sickle cell trait, no anemia, Hb S 20-45% of total, the rest Hb A. Homozygous state: sickle cell anemia, Hb S 75-100% of total, the rest Hb F or Hb A₂. Synonym(s): sickle cell hemoglobin

he·mo·glo·bin S

(Hb S) (hē'mō-glō'bin) An abnormal hemoglobin that renders erythrocytes subject to sickling and hemolysis at reduced oxygen tension; makes up 70-100% of hemoglobin in people with sickle cell anemia.
Synonym(s): sickle cell hemoglobin, haemoglobin S.
