关于 HBM

功能概要

位于 16 号染色体上的人类 α 珠蛋白基因簇跨越约 30 kb，包括七个基因座：5'- zeta - pseudozeta - mu - pseudoalpha-1 - alpha-2 - alpha-1 - theta - 3'。该基因有一个 ORF，编码 141 个氨基酸的多肽，类似于在爬行动物和鸟类中发现的 δ 珠蛋白。该基因座最初被描述为假基因；然而，目前它被认为是一种蛋白质编码基因。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

The human alpha globin gene cluster located on chromosome 16 spans about 30 kb and includes seven loci: 5'- zeta - pseudozeta - mu - pseudoalpha-1 - alpha-2 - alpha-1 - theta - 3'. This gene has an ORF encoding a 141 aa polypeptide which is similar to the delta globins found in reptiles and birds. This locus was originally described as a pseudogene; however, it is currently thought to be a protein-coding gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
