Second spectroscopically abnormal methemoglobin associated with hereditary cyanosis

P S GERALD et al. Science. .

Abstract

Isolation of an abnormal methemoglobin from two families exhibiting dominantly transmitted cyanosis have permitted the recognition of two different pigments of the hemoglobin M type. It is possible that the abnormal properties which characterize the acidic methemoglobin derivatives result from a crevice configuration of the heme, with two Feprotein bonds.
