The Formula for Hemoglobin. (0:45)
Transcript
Linus Pauling: For many years now, thirty-five years, it has been known that the formula of hemoglobin
is approximately as shown here. There are, of course, many kinds of hemoglobin. So
far as we are aware now, every species of animal manufactures its own kind of hemoglobin,
although my associates in Pasadena have just found that it is hard to detect the difference
between gorilla hemoglobin and orangutan hemoglobin and human hemoglobin. The formula
is about as indicated here for a representative hemoglobin. There are approximately
ten thousand atoms in the molecule.
