Abstract
The primary structure of the .alpha.-chains from pig (Suidae) and llama (Lama lama, Camelidae) Hb is given. They differ in the exchange of 22 and 25 amino acid residues, respectively, compared to human .alpha.-chains. Some aspects and the physiological significance of these results are discussed.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
