Finally, proteins exhibiting a common decrease in both rat and human MM from patients were EH domain-containing protein 2 (encoded by EHD2), septin-7 (encoded by SEPTIN7), serum albumin (encoded by ALB), and two subunits of hemoglobin (encoded by HBA1 and HBB) (Table 1 and Figure 5). This evidence concerns the gene HBB and Miyoshi myopathy.
