Summary A new single band variant (Gc Ta) of the Gc subtypes which does not correspond with the known Gc variants has been detected in a healthy blood donor by isoelectric focusing. Using this technique the variant is represented by a single band, which is more cathodically located than the 1A8(fast) band and more anodically located than the 1A3(fast) band. It is well known that the single band Gc phenotypes remain unaltered after neuraminidase treatment. Nevertheless, the new single band variant (Gc Ta) is altered after neuraminidase treatment. In this case the new single band Gc variant also contained n-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA).
