Imbalanced hemoglobin synthesis (HP:0005560)help
Term ID: 5560
Name: Imbalanced hemoglobin synthesis
Synonym: Imbalanced haemoglobin synthesis; Imbalanced Hb synthesis
Definition: Normal hemoglobin synthesis is characterized by production of equal amounts of alpha and beta globins. This term refers to a deviation from this pattern and is the main characteristic of the various forms of thalassemia.
