It's found in two red blood cell proteins: hemoglobin and myoglobin. Iron helps transport oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body, supports connective tissue health, and promotes muscle ...

In 1961 the structure of one protein, myoglobin, was known at 6 Å resolution and its 2 Å structure would soon be published. The structural determinations of hemoglobin and hen lysozyme were well ...

Heme is a nearly ubiquitous biomolecule that is involved in a wide range of important processes that include binding, transport, and activation of oxygen (myoglobin, hemoglobin), deactivation of ...

While myoglobin isn't part of blood, they do have an important connection. Blood contains a protein called hemoglobin, which ...

Dr. Tiso research interests are the molecular pathways governing the link between dietary nitrate metabolism, the microbiome and human health, in particular the reactions of nitrate and nitrite with ...
