A recombinant fragment (within amino acids 1-100) of human HBA2 protein was used as the immunogen for the recombinant Hemoglobin alpha antibody.
Hemoglobin (Hgb) is coupled to four iron-binding, methene-linked tetrapyrrole rings (heme). The alpha and beta globin loci determine the basic Hgb structure. The globin portion of Hgb consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains arranged in pairs for
