No (I just noticed this reply to my question). I don't think 'no' really answers it as I know that SOME herbivores definitely do. My question really should have said 'Do ALL herbivores have heme receptors'? A simple no does not give any information. Humans have them for starters and physiologically and anatomically we are herbivores.

Do mussels contain heme iron?

Heme iron comes from animal sources, while non-heme iron comes from plant sources, so I believe that because mussels are animals, mussels therefore do contain heme iron. Fish also contains heme iron.


What is an example of the control of heme biosynthesis?

What is the difference between heme iron and nonheme iron supplements?

Heme iron is more efficiently absorbed by the body, but non-heme iron can also be effective if used in conjunction with vitamin C and other dietary sources of heme iron.


Is Heme iron absorbed better than nonheme iron?

Heme iron is much more absorbable than non-heme iron. Since the iron inanimal-based foods is about 40% heme iron and 60% non-heme iron, animal-basedfoods are good sources of absorbable iron. In contrast, all of the iron found in plantbasedfoods is non-heme iron. Meat, fish, and poultry also contain a special meatfactor that enhances the absorption of non-heme iron. Vitamin C (or ascorbic acid)also enhances the absorption of non-heme iron.

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.
