J. Svasti et al., STRUCTURAL-ANALYSIS OF PROTEINS IN THAILAND - IDENTIFICATION OF ABNORMAL-HEMOGLOBINS, Pure and applied chemistry, 66(1), 1994, pp. 105-110
Many proteins and enzymes have been purified in Thailand, but little s
equence analysis has been performed, except for the abnormal hemoglobi
ns. This paper reviews the hemoglobins discovered in Thailand, and pre
sents experimental data on the abnormal hemoglobins found in five indi
viduals, namely: Hb Anantharaj [alpha11 (Lys-->Gln)], Hb Lepore-Washin
gton-Boston [delta87-beta116]/Hb E [beta26 (Glu-->Lys)], Hb J (Bangkok
) [beta56 (Gly-Asp)]/Hb E [beta26 (Glu-->Lys)], Hb Queens [alpha34(Leu
-Arg)], and Hb C [beta6 (Glu-->Lys)].
