Hemoglobin has a prosthetic group called heme. Collagen does not have a prosthetic group. The summary states that hemoglobin has 4 subunits, is globular, and has hydrophobic R-groups inside and hydrophilic outside, unlike collagen which lacks a prosthetic group.
H-globin possui um grupo prostético chamado H-e. Colagénio não possui um grupo prostético. O resumo descreve que a hemoglobina tem 4 subunidades, é globular e tem grupos R hidrofóbicos no interior e hidrofílicos no exterior, ao contrário do colagénio que não tem grupo prostético.
| Front | Haemoglobin contains a prosthetic group known as haem. Collagen does not contain a prosthetic group. Describe three other ways in which the structure of haemoglobin differs from that of collagen |
|---|---|
| Back | - haemoglobin has 4 subunits wheras collagen repeating units - haemoglobin globular - haemoglobin has hydrophobic R-groups inside and hydrophillic outside |
