- Abstract
The article discusses a study on an abundant erythroid-expression protein, called alpha-hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP), that can modulate βthalassemias phenotypes. The study examined the ability of the protein to bind and stabilize free &#945-globin. It identified seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (NPs) and three alleles of a Tn-homopolymer.
