Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed the quantities of alpha x chain-containing hemoglobins (alpha 2 x beta 2 and alpha 2 x delta 2) in 14 heterozygotes for Hb Q-India [alpha 64(E13)Asp-->His] or Hb Q-Thailand [alpha 74(EF3)Asp-->His]; both amino acid replacements are the result of mutations in the alpha 1-globin gene. Five of these persons (three with Hb Q-India and two with Hb Q-Thailand) had an additional beta(0)-thalassemia...
