The complete amino acid sequence has been determined for hemoglobin V from the lamprey, Petromyzon marinus. This sequence differs at only 12 sites from the sequence proposed for the hemoglobin of another species of lamprey, Lampetra fluviatilis. The primary structure of Petromyzon hemoglobin is compared with those of other vertebrate hemoglobins and is discussed in terms of the results of x-ray diffraction studies which indicate the presence of 2 residues not found in the sequence work. Suggestions concerning possible structure-function relationships are based in part on the hypothesis that residues which are identical or very similar in all hemoglobins may have the same functions.
