A, effect of charge on the proportion of abnormal hemoglobin in individuals heterozygous for 72 stable β-globin variants. Each data point represents a mean value for a given variant. B, effect of α-thalassemia on the proportion of seven positively charged β subunit variants (blue) and three negatively charged variants (red).

FIGURE 5.
Impact of oxygenation on HIF-1α stability. EMSAs and Western blotting were carried out on extracts of oxygenated HeLa cells (N) and on cells incubated in 1% O2 for 4 h and then, at time 0, exposed to 21% O2. HIF-1α protein remained stable, whereas HIF-1α protein decayed rapidly. H, hypoxia; N, normoxia.

FIGURE 6.
Layout of Ncb5or protein. The cytochrome b5 (cyt b5) domain at the N terminus contains two highly conserved histidines that bind heme iron (H). The cytochrome b5 reductase (cyt b5R) domain at the C terminus contains flavin (FAD)- and NADPH-binding domains.
