What is the subunit of haemoglobin?
A subunit of haemoglobin is the Heme Group.
What role does the heme group play in the hemeglobin?
No I can't answer it! That's why I asked you!
What is the Organometallic iron compound found in hemoglobin?
Heme prosthetic group or Fe-protoporphyrin ix. A heme is madeup of protoporhyrin (ix) (organic compound) and Fe+2 (metal) hence organometallic.
What component in the plasma of red blood cells carries oxygen molecules to the somatic Cells?
The heme group of hemoglobin.
What is the heme protein database?
The Heme protein database refers to the protein sequence databases.
What is the coordination number of iron in hemoglobin molecule?
The coordination number is six. Four of these sites are occupied by the nitrogens in the heme moiety, one is occupied by the nitrogen in the side chain of a histidine residue, and the remaining one is occupied by a loosely bound oxygen molecule.
What Central ion is of each heme group?
iron
What is the subunit of haemoglobin?
A subunit of haemoglobin is the Heme Group.
When erythrocytes are broken down the heme group is excreted as what?
iron
What role does the heme group play in the hemeglobin?
No I can't answer it! That's why I asked you!
What are the uses of heme?
Heme is a ferrous ion prosthetic group (Fe2+) present in metalloproteins or specifically Hemoproteins such as Hemoglobin, porphyrin. heme is also found in proteins such as myoglobin, catalase, cytochromes. In these proteins Heme either participates in the catalysis or act as a stabilizer of active site amino acid.
What ion is an essential factor in hemoglobin?
Hemoglobin contains a heme group with an Iron ion attached to it. This iron is what binds to O2.
What part of the hemoglobin molecule is recycled to form bile?
A portion of the heme group
What is the Organometallic iron compound found in hemoglobin?
Heme prosthetic group or Fe-protoporphyrin ix. A heme is madeup of protoporhyrin (ix) (organic compound) and Fe+2 (metal) hence organometallic.
What is the iron-containing portion of the hemoglobin molecule called?
The iron containing part of hemoglobin is the 'heme' molecule.
Is heme and hemoglobin the same?
Heme + globin is Hemoglobin.
In order for oxygen to be carried on the red blood cell the iron must be in the?
The name hemoglobin is derived from the words heme and globin, reflecting the fact that each subunit of hemoglobin is a globular protein with an embedded heme or iron group.
