title: Hemopexin is localized to human chromosome 11.
abstract: Hemopexin, a plasma protein that migrates during electrophoresis with the beta-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.
