Abstract

Adult chicken hemoglobin is heterogeneous and contains two major components, AI and AII (1). The amino acid sequence of the alpha chain of the AI component from white leghorns (small A type) was determined and compared with that of the alpha chain of the AII component, previously determined by the authors (2). An unexpectedly large difference of 65 amino acids was found between these two chains.
