MeSH definition : A group of abnormal hemoglobins with similar electrophoretic characteristics. They
have faster electrophoretic mobility and different amino acid substitutions in either
the alpha or beta chains than normal adult hemoglobin. Some of the variants produce
hematologic abnormalities, others result in no clinical disorders.;
CISMeF synonym : j, hemoglobin;
MeSH CAS label : hemoglobin J;
Registry Number MeSH : 58128-48-6;
MeSH annotation : an abnorm hemoglobin; /urine: coord IM with HEMOGLOBINURIA (IM); DF: HBJ; /urine: coordinate with HEMOGLOBINURIA;
