We describe a new α-globin chain variant in a Chinese subject. This novel variant, with a Val→Met substitution at codon 93 of the α-globin chain, has been named Hb Qingcheng (: c.280G>A) for where the proband was born. A woman with somatic mosaicism for Hb Qingcheng presented with the phenotype of mild α-thalassemia (α-thal).
