ABSTRACT Background Hemoglobin British Columbia is a rare high‐oxygen‐affinity β‐globin variant caused by the HBB:c.304G>A substitution. Its detection is exceptionally uncommon, particularly in the Middle East, and may lead to diagnostic pitfalls when relying solely on hemoglobin separation techniques.

Template Activity for Globin and Non-Globin Protein Synthesis in Reticulocytes
Factors which control the rate of synthesis of two distinct classes of protein, globin and non-globin proteins, by free reticulocyte ribosomes have been investigated. Three different inhibitors of protein synthesis, puromycin, cycloheximide, and hydroxylamine, were more effective in inhibiting the synthesis of globin than of non-globin protein by free ...

This study compared Premier Resolution HPLC with Capillary Electrophoresis for detecting HbCS/Hb Paksé variants and coexisting thalassemia mutations. Premier Resolution HPLC demonstrated superior performance with 50% fewer false negative cases (11 vs. 22) compared to Capillary Electrophoresis, particularly in heterozygous cases.

Comparative genomics of neuroglobin reveals its early origins. [PDF]
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is a hexacoordinated globin expressed mainly in the central and peripheral nervous system of vertebrates. Although several hypotheses have been put forward regarding the role of neuroglobin, its definite function remains uncertain.

The Disbalance of α- and β-Globins in Anemic Belgrade Rat Red Blood Cells
The Belgrade Laboratory (b/b) rat has an autosomal mutation which in homozygous state induces severe anemia. This study was based on solubilization of total rat globin chains and their separation into α- and β-globins using a 20% SDS polyacrilamide gel ...

Durante mucho tiempo se asumió que la hemoglobina y la mioglobina eran las únicas globinas de los vertebrados. En el año 2000 se descubrió un tercer tipo de globina, que sobre la base de su ubicación preferencial en el sistema nervioso fue denominada ...

A membrane-bound vertebrate globin.
The family of vertebrate globins includes hemoglobin, myoglobin, and other O(2)-binding proteins of yet unclear functions. Among these, globin X is restricted to fish and amphibians.

This nationwide registry‐based study describes the clinical and molecular characteristics of 78 patients with transfusion‐dependent beta‐thalassemia in Spain. Comprehensive genetic analysis revealed marked molecular heterogeneity, with 24 HBB mutations identified and a predominance of β0 genotypes, alongside generally effective transfusion and iron ...

Elevated Hemoglobin A2: A Molecular Revisited, and Implications to β‐Thalassemia Screening
In Thailand, the Hb A2 cut‐off value for β‐thalassemia carrier has been changed from 4.0% to 3.6% since 2015. We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change. The molecular basis of β‐thalassemia was updated, and a change in the Hb A2 cut‐off can alter this spectrum.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential
