The folding pathway for globins [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1977
Previous investigations have successfully predicted the three-dimensional structures of trypsin inhibitor [ 1,2] , myoglobin [3,4] , TMV protein [ 51 and rubredoxin [2]. Using mechanisms of protein chain folding which one of us [5 $1 suggested,.we can find a common folding pathway for the globins which are included in the ‘Atlas of Protein Sequence and

Nerve Globins in Invertebrates

IUBMB Life, 2004
AbstractThe expression of nerve hemoglobins in invertebrates is a well‐established fact, but this occurrence is uncommon. In the species where nerve globins occur, they probably function as an oxygen store for sustaining activity of the nerves during anoxic conditions.

ATF4 Regulates MYB to Increase γ-Globin in Response to Loss of β-Globin

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: β-Hemoglobinopathies can trigger rapid production of red blood cells in a process known as stress erythropoiesis. Cellular stress prompts differentiating erythroid precursors to express high levels of fetal γ-globin.

Isolation, characterization and immunolocalization of a globin-like antigen from Ostertagia ostertagi adults [PDF]

, 1996
Western blot analysis using an anti-globin rabbit serum Rb94 revealed a major band of 17 kDa in extracts of Ostertagia ostertagi adults and 4th-stage larvae.

Globin and Globin Gene Structure of the Nerve Myoglobin of Aphrodite aculeata [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
The globin of the nerve cord of the polychaete annelid Aphrodite aculeata was isolated and purified to homogeneity. The native molecule has a pI of 6.3 and acts as a dimer of two identical Mr 15, 644.5 polypeptide chains as determined by electrospray mass spectrometry.

3,3′,5-Triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC) induces embryonic ζ-globin expression via thyroid hormone receptor α

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2021
The human ζ-globin gene (HBZ) is transcribed in primitive erythroid cells only during the embryonic stages of development. Reactivation of this embryonic globin synthesis would likely alleviate symptoms both in α-thalassemia and sickle-cell disease ...

Cotranslational Folding of Globin [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
Globin synthesis in a wheat germ cell-free translation system was performed in the presence of [3H]hemin and [35S]methionine to determine the minimal length of the nascent ribosome-bound globin chain capable of heme binding. Nascent polypeptides of predetermined size were synthesized on ribosomes by translation of truncated mRNA molecules.

Primitive and definitive erythropoiesis in mammals

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
Red blood cells (RBCs), which constitute the most abundant cell type in the body, come in two distinct flavors- primitive and definitive. Definitive RBCs in mammals circulate as smaller, anucleate cells during fetal and postnatal life, while primitive ...

Prevalence and genetic analysis of triplicated α-globin gene in Ganzhou region using high-throughput sequencing

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
α-globin gene triplication carriers were not anemic in general, while some studies found that α-globin gene triplication coinherited with heterozygous β-thalassemia may cause adverse clinical symptoms, which yet lacks sufficient evidence in large ...
