| Abstract: | The proportion of some a chain variants in the peripheral blood of heterozygotes has been a most useful marker for the number and activity of the a chain genes of human hemoglobin. Among these, Hb G-Philadelphia(or α2 68Lys β2) has been found in association with a heterozygous or a homozygous α-thal-2, a β-thal trait (AGAβTH) or a Hb S heterozygosity (ASAG) and a Hb S homozygosity (SSG). Hb G-Philadelphia heterozygotes differ in the proporticn of Hb G, MCV and MCH values and Σα/non-α biosynthetic ratios. Two categories have been noted in our laboratories among adult heterozygotes. |
