Predicted 3D structure of dog HBA-HBH tetramer. α chains are shown in blue, and γ chains in yellow. Notable amino acid positions in HBH are highlighted red. Those positions are: I at that position 13 (canine HBH is the only one of the 43 to have it); R at position 18 (HBH is one of only two having it, since 38 are K and 3 are Q at this position); 88E, which is unique in dog HBH (although 2 others are D); and HBH 127 T is unique (the others are only V/M/L/I)
