Abstract

Immunochemical characterization of the intermediate and saturated forms of human hemoglobin-haptoglobin 1-1 complex was performed by immunoprecipitation reaction using rabbit antisera against the α and β chains of normal human adult hemoglobin.The intermediate and saturated complexes produced precipitation lines against antisera to either types of chain, indicating that these complexes contain both of the α- and β-chains of Hb A.From these immunological studies and physico-chemical properties previously reported, it seems that the intermediate and saturated forms of Hb-Hp 1-1 complex would be Hp 1-1 bound with a αβ subunit and two αβ subunits (α2β2) of Hb A, respectively.
