A Review of Haptoglobin Typing Methods for Disease Association Study and Preventing Anaphylactic Transfusion Reaction
Figure 2
Typical electrophoresis patterns of haptoglobin proteins according to their genotypes. Hp 1-1 shows a fast migrating band corresponding to the small Hp 1 dimer, and Hp 2-2 displays multiple slow migrating bands representing polymers consisting of Hp 2 proteins. Hp 2-1 has a fast migrating band and several slow migrating bands.
