Medical Definition of Haemoglobin Anti-Lepore
1. A group of abnormal haemoglobins similar to haemoglobin Lepore. These haemoglobins have normal a chains, but the non-a chain consists of the N-terminal portion of the b chain joined to the C-terminal portion of the d chain. This is the opposite crossing over pattern observed in haemoglobin Lepore. Examples of haemoglobin Anti-Lepore include HbMiyada, Hb PCongo, Hb PNilotic, and HbLincoln Park. There is also one variant that is both haemoglobin Lepore and haemoglobin Anti-Lepore (HbParchman). Compare: haemoglobin Lepore. (05 Mar 2000)
