Abstract
A minor hemoglobin component, apparently representing uncombined α-chains has been detected in the hemolysates of persons with inherited β-chain deficiency of moderate or severe degree. This finding supports the hypothesis that there is independent control of the synthesis of α-chains.Keywords
