Haemoglobin molecule

Hemoglobin molecule. Computer artwork showing the molecular structure of haemoglobin, a metalloprotein that transports oxygen around the body in red blood cells. Each molecule consists of iron-containing haem groups and globin proteins. Each globin protein is wrapped around a haem group, protecting it from being oxidised and destroyed by the oxygen it is intended to transport. The iron within each haem group reversibly bonds to oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The globin protein is represented by the blue ribbon, the heme group by the copper tubes, the iron by a silver sphere and the oxygen molecule by gold spheres
