What else can I help you with?
Is the B subunit of the hemoglobin A molecule a complete DNA molecule?
B-subunit of the hemoglobin A molecule is not a complete DNA molecule. It contains 4 subunits
A fully functional molecule of hemoglobin is what kind of protein structure?
The structure of the hemoglobin in a molecule is the quaternary structure.
What substance is transported by hemoglobin?
The hemoglobin molecule is what the oxygen molecule will attach to in the red blood cell.
Hemoglobin is what type of molecule?
A protein Molecule
How many molecules of oxygen can be transported by one molecule of hemoglobin?
Each molecule of hemoglobin can transport up to four molecules of oxygen. Hemoglobin has four heme groups, each of which can bind to one molecule of oxygen.
How many molecules of oxygen are present in saturated hemoglobin?
In saturated hemoglobin, each hemoglobin molecule can bind to four molecules of oxygen. Therefore, in saturated hemoglobin, there would be a total of four molecules of oxygen bound to each hemoglobin molecule.
What is the diameter of hemoglobin?
The diameter of Hb molecule is app. 5.5 nm, and that is larger than a glucose molecule.
Is the B-subunit of the hemoglobin A molecule a complete DNA molecule?
No, the B-subunit of hemoglobin A is a protein subunit, not a DNA molecule. Hemoglobin is composed of four protein subunits (two alpha and two beta) that come together to form the hemoglobin molecule, which carries oxygen in red blood cells. The instructions for making these protein subunits are found in the DNA of our cells.
WHen hemoglobin binds its first oxygen molecule it is easier for other?
after one oxygen molecule binds to hemoglobin, it is easier for the other molecules to bind to the hemoglobin. this is known as cooperative binding.
Which mineral is in hemoglobin?
Iron. This element is found at the center of each hemoglobin molecule.
What molecule is important in the formation of the heme portion of the hemoglobin molecule?
iron
What is the difference between normal and sickle cell hemoglobin?
loss of only one amino acid from the normal hemoglobin molecule
