A twins heritability study on alpha hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP) expression variability
Cytotoxic precipitation of free α-globin monomers and its production of reactive oxygen species cause red cell membrane damage that leads to anemia and eventually ineffective erythropoiesis in β-thalassemia. Alpha hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP) was found to bind only to free α-globin monomers...
