Question
Relative to the position of hemoglobin A on your gel, where would you expect to find a mutant hemoglobin in which the b-chain glutamic acid residue was replaced by lysine?
Sample Wall Number:
1. Normal Hemoglobin- Homoglobin AA
2. Sickle Trait Hemoglobin- Hemoglobin AS
3. Sickle Cell Hemoglobin- Hemoglobin SS
4. The unkniwn hemoglobin sample (showing the mutant sickle cell anemia trait)

- biliverdin macrophages urobilinogen bilirubin Erythrocytes are continually replaced. Worn-out erythrocytes are lysed in the spleen as they pass through splenic cords in the spleen. Blank 1 digest these cell parts, and separate heme from the globin units of hemoglobin. The globin proteins are broken down into amino acids and recycled. The heme pigment is converted into Blank 2 , then Blank 3 , and released into the blood. It is concentrated in urine, producing its yellow color. The liver removes additional bilirubin and secretes it into bile. When released into the small intestine, bacteria transform it into Blank 4 , which makes feces brown.arrow_forwardThe part of hemoglobin that binds iron is O alpha globulin 2 Obeta globulin 2 alpha globulin 1 O beta globulin 1 hemearrow_forwardAnswer the following questions about hemoglobin.
