Summary. It has been shown that a genetically controlled polymorphic protein of rabbit serum is soluble in 0.6N HClO4 and complexes with heme and not hemoglobin. It is proposed that the name of this protein be changed from heme‐binding protein to hemopexin in order to identify it with serum proteins of other species which exhibit similar properties. The suggested gene symbol is Hx.
