A fetal hemoglobin variant of unusual genetic interest.

T HE HUMAN HEMOGLOBINS consist of two pairs of peptide chains.1’2 Adult hemoglobin ( Hb-A ) has two chains designated a and two chains designated iB; it is thus represented as 2A $2A#{149}Fetal hemoglobin (Hb-F ) has two a chains, which are similar if not identical in structure to those of Hb-A, but a pair of chemically distinct chains, the y chains replacing the $ chains.3’4 Hb-F is thus repre...

Heterozygote Hemoglobin J Iran in Combination with Hemoglobin H Disease

This is a report concerning a concurrent case of hemoglobin J Iran (Hb J Iran) and Hemoglobin H (Hb H) disease in an Iranian woman. The patient was coincidentally found during the course of routine pre-marital genetic counselling for her son. The diagnosis of heterozygote Hb J Iran for her son, ultimately led to the diagnosis of concurrent Hb J Iran and Hb H disease. The hematological examinati...

A chemical study of hemoglobin Norfolk.

In an English family living in the county of Norfolk, England, Ager, Lehmann, and Vella (2) have described the occurrence of an electrophoretically fast moving variant of human adult hemoglobin (hemoglobin A). This hemoglobin has been named hemoglobin Norfolk. Gammack et al. (3) have reported that hemoglobin Norfolk contains abnormal ac-peptide chains. By a microscale adaptation of the dissocia...

The in Vitro Synthesis of Hemoglobin by Human Bone Marrow in Thalassemia.

I N THALASSEMIA an inability to form hemoglobin at a normal rate is suggested by the marked degree of erythroid hypochromia in the presence of normal or increased serum iron. On purely theoretical grounds, Rich1 and later Itano2 suggested that in this syndrome there exists a defect in the peptide chains of hemoglobin. This concept was further elaborated by Ingram and co-workers3 who suggested t...

Patterns of hemoglobin assembly in reticulocytes of sickle cell trait individuals.

Venous blood was obtained from five sickle cell trait donors with relatively high hemoglobin S concentrations (40% of total hemoglobin) and five donors with unusually low hemoglobin S concentrations (25 to 30%). A fraction of cells with 15 to 20% reticulocytes was isolated from the blood and incubated with [3H]leucine in a medium supporting protein synthesis for various times from 1.25 to 60 mi...
