A few years ago we reported that histidine (HC3) 146 beta plays a major role in the pH-dependent properties of the R-state of human hemoglobin, accounting for close to 50% of the R-state Bohr effect. We have extended these studies by examining the role of arginine 141 alpha, another group known to a
## AE-Linolenic acid metabolism in adult humans: the effects of gender and age on conversion to longer-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids This review summarises and evaluates current knowledge of a-linolenic acid (aLNA) metabolism in adult humans. The principal biological role of aLNA appears to be
