Journal ArticleDOI

High Performance Liquid Cbromatographic Separation of Globin Chains on a Large-Pore C4 Column

TL;DR: In this article, the resolution of human and baboon globin chains was obtained by HPLC on a Vydac large-pore C4 column using a gradient between aqueous trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and triflooracetic acids in acetonitrile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for multiple structural genes for the gamma chain of human fetal hemoglobin.

TL;DR: The fetal hemoglobin components of 17 additional infants are examined and it is observed that position 136 of the γ chain may be occupied not only by a glycyl residue, as previously reported, but also by an alanyl residue.
Journal ArticleDOI

An examination of conditions for the cleavage of polypeptide chains with cyanogen bromide: application to catalase.

TL;DR: The poor cleavage of a -Met-Thr- bond in catalase by cyanogen bromide has been improved by modifying the conditions of the reaction by increasing the concentration of the reactants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Amino Acid Sequence of the γ Chain of Human Fetal Hemoglobin

TL;DR: The 146 amino acid residues of the γ chain of human fetal hemoglobin have been placed in sequence and the differences between the α and γ chains are responsible for the differences in the properties of the two molecules.
