==3D Printed Physical Model of Hemoglobin==


The [http://cbm.msoe.edu MSOE Center for BioMolecular Modeling] uses 3D printing technology to create physical models of protein and molecular structures. Models function as thinking tools, making the invisible molecular world more tangible and comprehensible.

Shown to the right is a physical model of Hemoglobin, based on the structure 1a3n.pdb.  
Shown below is a physical model of Hemoglobin, based on the structure 1a3n.pdb. The two alpha-globin chains are colored light red, the two beta globin chains are colored dark red, and the four heme groups are colored yellow.
