Scope note: Miembros de la familia de alfa globinas. En los humanos están codificados en un grupo génico en el CROMOSOMA 16. Incluyen la zeta globina y la alfa globina. Hay también pseudogénes de zeta (theta-zeta) y alfa (theta-alpha) en el grupo. La HEMOGLOBINA del adulto está compuesta de 2 cadenas de alfa globina y 2 cadenas de beta globina.
