Entrez Gene summary for HBM Gene:

The human alpha globin gene cluster located on chromosome 16 spans about 30 kb and includes seven loci: 5'- zeta -

pseudozeta - mu - pseudoalpha-1 - alpha-2 - alpha-1 - theta - 3'. This gene has an ORF encoding a 141 aa

polypeptide which is similar to the delta globins found in reptiles and birds. This locus was originally

described as a pseudogene; however, it is currently thought to be a protein-coding gene. (provided by RefSeq, Jul

2008)

GeneCards Summary for HBM Gene:

HBM (hemoglobin, mu) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with HBM include hyperostosis corticalis generalisata, and diffuse cutaneous mastocytosis. GO annotations related to this gene include iron ion binding and oxygen binding. An important paralog of this gene is HBE1.
