The primary structure of the hemoglobin of the Brazilian manatee (Trichechus inunguis, Sirenia).
Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler 369: 507-512. 3 tabs. 3 figs. June 1988.
–German summ. Best died before seeing the completed manuscript of this paper. Reports that T. inunguis hemoglobin has only one component, describes the primary structures of its a- and ß-chains, and concludes that several hemoglobin synapomorphies support the monophyletic grouping of the Sirenia, Proboscidea, and Hyracoidea and show the Paenungulata to be the most anciently separated branch of the Eutheria.
