Haemoglobin, molecular model C015 / 8939
Haemoglobin, molecular model. This molecule transports oxygen around the body in red blood cells. It consists of four globin proteins (amino acid chains; orange, green, blue and purple). Each globin protein is wrapped around a haem group. This model of deoxyhaemoglobin, the molecule in its non-oxygen bound state, was produced as part of a study of the molecules affinity and differences between various forms of the molecules T-state (tense form)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of haemoglobin, a vital component in our bodies. Haemoglobin is responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body within red blood cells. The model depicted here represents deoxyhaemoglobin, which refers to the molecule in its non-oxygen bound state. The image highlights four globin proteins, each represented by distinct colors - orange, green, blue, and purple. These amino acid chains elegantly wrap around a central haem group. Through this arrangement, haemoglobin forms a complex network that enables efficient oxygen transport. The creation of this detailed model was part of an extensive study exploring the affinity and differences between various forms of haemoglobin's T-state or tense form. By examining these variations closely, scientists gain valuable insights into how different states affect its function and overall performance. With its white background and precise illustration style, this artwork beautifully captures the structural essence of haemoglobin at a molecular level. Its scientific significance lies not only in biology but also extends to biochemistry and molecular biology fields. This stunning visual representation serves as a reminder of the remarkable complexity present within our own bodies while showcasing the intersection between artistry and science.
