Entrez Gene summary for HBG2 Gene:

The gamma globin genes (HBG1 and HBG2) are normally expressed in the fetal liver, spleen and bone marrow. Two gamma

chains together with two alpha chains constitute fetal hemoglobin (HbF) which is normally replaced by adult hemoglobin

(HbA) at birth. In some beta-thalassemias and related conditions, gamma chain production continues into adulthood. The

two types of gamma chains differ at residue 136 where glycine is found in the G-gamma product (HBG2) and alanine is

found in the A-gamma product (HBG1). The former is predominant at birth. The order of the genes in the beta-globin

cluster is: 5'- epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

GeneCards Summary for HBG2 Gene:

HBG2 (hemoglobin, gamma G) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with HBG2 include sulfhemoglobinemia, and cavernous hemangioma, and among its related super-pathways are Renin-Angiotensin Pathway and Platelet activation, signaling and aggregation. GO annotations related to this gene include iron ion binding and oxygen binding. An important paralog of this gene is HBE1.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: HBG2_HUMAN, P69892

Function: Gamma chains make up the fetal hemoglobin F, in combination with alpha chains

Cyanosis transient neonatal (TNCY) [MIM:613977]: A disorder characterized by cyanosis in the fetus and

neonate, due to a defect in the fetal hemoglobin chain which has reduced affinity for oxygen. Some patients develop

anemia resulting from increased destruction of red cells containing abnormal or unstable hemoglobin. The cyanosis

resolves spontaneously by 5 to 6 months of age or earlier, as the adult beta-globin chain is produced and replaces the

fetal gamma-globin chain. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry
