Abstract
Hemopexin, a plasma protein that migrates during electrophoresis with the Β-globulins, transports free heme to sites of its catabolism in the liver. A hemopexin cDNA clone has been utilized for mapping the hemopexin (HPX) gene to human chromosome 11 in the region pter→p11 by somatic cell hybrid analysis.
