The alpha subunit is normal in people with sickle cell disease. When sickle hemoglobin releases oxygen in the peripheral tissues, the molecules tend to stick together and form long chains or polymers. These rigid polymers distort the cell and cause it to bend out of shape from the normative disc shape.
