General Description

Hemoglobin papio B, also known as baboon hemoglobin, is a tetrameric protein found in the blood of baboons that plays a crucial role in transporting oxygen from the lungs to various tissues and organs in the body. This hemoglobin variant contains two alpha-globin and two beta-globin chains that form a quaternary structure and bind to heme groups, allowing for the reversible binding of oxygen molecules. Hemoglobin papio B exhibits a high affinity for oxygen, making it efficient at delivering oxygen to tissues in low-oxygen environments. Studying this unique hemoglobin variant can provide insights into the evolution of hemoglobin function and structure in primates and may have implications for understanding human hemoglobin disorders and respiratory adaptations.
