Only one hemoglobin component is recognized in the erythrocytes of the adult Ryukyu rufous turtle dove. We have determined the amino acid sequence of the alpha A-globin and the beta-globin by conventional protein sequence analysis. The sequences of both the alpha A- and the beta-globins were highly similar to domestic pigeon hemoglobin. The alpha A-globin has 6 exchanges and beta-globin has 4 exchanges compared with the corresponding domestic pigeon chains.
在成年琉球棕斑鸠的红细胞中仅识别出一种血红蛋白成分。我们通过传统蛋白质序列分析确定了αA-珠蛋白和β-珠蛋白的氨基酸序列。αA-珠蛋白和β-珠蛋白的序列与家鸽血红蛋白高度相似。与相应的家鸽链相比,αA-珠蛋白有6个氨基酸替换,β-珠蛋白有4个氨基酸替换。
