Title: Hb Fontainebleau [alpha 21(B2)Ala----pro], a new silent mutant hemoglobin. Author: Wajcman H, Blouquit Y, Gombaud-Saintonge G, Riou J, Galacteros F. Journal: Hemoglobin; 1989; 13(5):421-8. PubMed ID: 2599878. Abstract: Hb Fontainebleau [alpha 21(B2)Ala----Pro] was found in a family of Italian origin. This new variant has electrophoretic properties identical to those of Hb A with the exception of isoelectrofocusing in which it migrates like Hb A1c. The introduction of a prolyl residue at the beginning of the B helix in the alpha chain does not lead to a change in the stability or oxygen binding properties of the hemoglobin molecule.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
