Background
The gamma globin genes (HBG1 and HBG2) are normallyexpressed in the fetal liver, spleen and bone marrow. Two gammachains together with two alpha chains constitute fetal hemoglobin(HbF) which is normally replaced by adult hemoglobin (HbA) atbirth. In some beta-thalassemias and related conditions, gammachain production continues into adulthood. The two types of gammachains differ at residue 136 where glycine is found in the G-gammaproduct (HBG2) and alanine is found in the A-gamma product (HBG1).The former is predominant at birth. The order of the genes in thebeta-globin cluster is: 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta-- beta--3'.
