Hemoglobin F - CISMeF

Preferred Label : Hemoglobin F;

NCIt synonyms : Fetal Hemoglobin; Hb a2g2; Hemoglobin Alpha2Gamma2; Hgb F;

NCIt related terms : Hb F;

NCIt definition : A tetrameric complex of 2 molecules of hemoglobin subunit alpha (encoded by either the HBA1 or HBA2 gene) and 2 molecules of hemoglobin subunit gamma (encoded by either the HBG1 or HBG2 gene).;

NCIt note : Hemoglobin F is expressed by fetal red blood cells and its production drops soon after birth and reaches levels found in adults within 1 to 2 years. In adults, hemoglobin F accounts for less than 2% of the normal erythrocyte hemoglobin in adults.;
