Abstract
Degradation of the haem of haemoglobin (used as a chemical probe of the haem–protein relationship), suggests that reconstituted human haemoglobin contains significant haem disorder. This results from the insertion of haem into globin with an orientation 180° different from the natural orientation. Haem disorder also slowly occurs in methaemoglobin solutions.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
