Hb D-Los Angeles [beta121(GH4)Glu>Gln] and Hb Beograd [beta121(GH4)Glu>Val]: Implications for their laboratory diagnosis and genetic origins.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the laboratory diagnosis and genetic origins of the hemoglobin (Hb) variants, Hb D-Los Angeles and Hb Beograd observed frequently in our region. MATERIAL AND METHODS Hb variants were investigated in one Hb D-Los Angeles and two Hb Beograd families. These families were unrelated with each other. For the determination of Hb variants, alkaline/aci...
متن کاملOxidative instability of hemoglobin E (β26 Glu→Lys) is increased in the presence of free α subunits and reversed by α-hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP): Relevance to HbE/β-thalassemia.
When adding peroxide (H2O2), β subunits of hemoglobin (Hb) bear the burden of oxidative changes due in part to the direct oxidation of its Cys93. The presence of unpaired α subunits within red cells and/or co-inheritance of another β subunit mutant, HbE (β26 Glu→Lys) have been implicated in the pathogenesis and severity of β thalassemia. We have found that although both HbA and HbE autoxidize a...

The reaction of the P2 protein from rabbit sciatic nerve with CNBr produced four peptides: a 20-residue peptide (CN3) containing tryptophan which occupies the blocked NHZ terminus; Peptide CN1, a large peptide comprising over 70% of the P2 molecule; Peptide CN2, a fraction containing two tightly bound peptides having 2 half-cystine residues and comprising the COOH terminus; and Peptide CN4, a n...
متن کاملPolyglutamylation: The GLU that Makes Microtubules Sticky
The beating of cilia and flagella depends on microtubule sliding generated by dynein motors, but the interaction of these motors with their tracks is still under investigation. New evidence suggests that some dynein motors will not function properly unless their track has been modified by a specific post-translational modification.
متن کاملOcular manifestations in autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa with a Lys-296-Glu rhodopsin mutation at the retinal binding site.
A lysine to glutamic acid substitution at codon 296 in the rhodopsin gene has been reported in a family with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. This mutation is of particular functional interest as this lysine molecule is the binding site of 11-cis-retinal. The clinical features of a family with this mutation have not been reported previously. We examined 14 patients with autosomal domina...
