Question

Haemoglobin is (1) oligomeric protein (2) chromoprotein (3) monomeric protein (4) keratin

• A. 1, 2 and 3 are correct.
• B. 1 and 2 are correct.
• C. 2 and 4 are correct.
• D. 1 and 3 are correct.

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Haemoglobin is conjugated protein, which is made up of a protein, called globin and a non protein group haeme, hence, the name haemoglobin. The molecular formula of haemoglobin is $C_{3032}$ $H_{4816}$ $O_{872}$ $N_{780}$ $S_8$ $F{e}_{4.}$ Conjugate proteins include oligomeric protein and chromoprotein.
