Abstract
According to recent works, hereditary elliptocytosis (HE) appears to be related in some instances, to a defective self-association of spectrin (type I HE). We report a new case of type I HE observed in a white patient. Study of limited tryptic digestion of a spectrin dimer showed modification of a peptide involved in the dimer self-association processKeywords
