Regulation of Hemoglobin Synthesis
Open accessAbstract
We find no difference in the rate of translation of OL-and /3-globin mRNA in cell-free extracts of rabbit reticulocytes (about 200 s per chain at 25") nor in the rate of release of completed globin chains from polyribosomes (about 15 s per chain).In these reactions, as well as incubation of intact reticulocytes, each /3-globin mRNA contains 30 to 40% more ribosomes than each oc-mRNA.These results imply that each /3-mRNA initiates synthesis of about 40% more p-globin than each ol-mRNA initiates synthesis of a! chains.Hence, reticulocytes must contain 30 to 40% more ar-mRNA than /3 in order to synthesize equal numbers of the two hemoglobin chains.This conclusion is consistent with results of a previous indirect measure of the relative amounts of CYand P-globin mRNA (Lodish, H.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
