épsilon-globina
Scope note: Miembro de la familia de beta globina. En los humanos la épsilon globina está codificada en el grupo génico de la beta globina localizado en el CROMOSOMA 11. Dos cadenas de épsilon globina se combinan con dos cadenas de ZETA GLOBINA para formar la hemoglobina embrionaria Gower I o dos cadenas de épsilon globina se combinan con dos cadenas de ALFA-2 GLOBINA para formar la hemoglobina embrionaria Gower II.

Scope note: A member of the beta-globin family. In humans, epsilon-globin is encoded in the beta-globin gene cluster located on CHROMOSOME 11. Two epsilon-globin chains combine with two ZETA-GLOBIN chains to form the embryonic hemoglobin Gower I or two epsilon-globin chains combine with two ALPHA-2 GLOBIN chains to form the embryonic hemoglobin Gower II.
