It binds oxygen reversibly. It increases oxygen availability in the brain. It is a monomer containing a heme group. Relevance NGB may influence the course of Alzhheimer's disease. Structural highlights Heme binding site. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. 1st Xe coordination site. 2nd Xe coordination site. 3rd Xe binding site. 4th Xe binding site.
