Peptide yCB-3 is the indicator of the presence and activity of nonallelie structural genes for the human y-chain. An equivalent peptide has been isolated from the HbF of the marmoset (Saguinus fuscicollis), the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta), the orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus), and the gorilla (Gorilla

There are two forms of the alpha chain of canine hemoglobin differing only at residue 130. One form (taualpha) contains threonine at this position, the other (Aalpha) contains alanine. Studies of two Labrador dog families strongly support the existance of multiple alpha-chain structural genes as the
Two sons of a previously reported Ghanaian homozygote for the hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) (Ringelhann et al., 1970) also are HPFH homozygotes. In addition, another unrelated adult Ghanaian homozygote has been detected. All of these Ghanaian homozygotes as well as three American
In 1968 Schroeder et al.' described a heterogeneity of human fetal haemoglobin resulting from the presence of either a glycyl (Gy) or an alanyl residue (Ay) in position 136 of the y-chain. In 1976, Ricco et al.\* discovered another type of y-chain heterogeneity in which the isoleucyl residue in posi
## Abstract Abnormalities of immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain synthesis occurring in human B lymphoid cell lines of malignant origin suggest that the Ig heavy‐chain gene complex is involved in the 8:14 chromosome translocation which these cells carry.
