Abstract
The primary structure of the symmetric dimeric Hb from type .alpha.2 component CTT VIIB from the larvae of C. t. thummi is given. The sequence revealed the presence of at least 2 components differing in 6 positions. A comparison with human .alpha.-chains is discussed with respect to the primary structure, helices and heme complex and heme contacts.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
