It has two main components: a single polypeptide chain, and heme ligand. The heme ligand is only partially exposed to the surface; the majority of it is buried inside the protein. The overall shape of myoglobin is approximately disc-shaped with a diameter that is about twice its thickness. The overall fold of the protein is conserved, especially the hydrophobic core of the protein (shown in purple), but the sequence is more variable on the surface. Metmyoglobin (MMb) is the oxidized form of myoglobin. Structural highlights The globin consists mostly of alpha helices shown in pink; it has no beta sheets and its non-helical segments mostly serve as links that connect the helices. Look down the barrel of some of the longer helices. Are they all straight? The eight structurally conserved alpha helices are labelled A through H. The protein is colored as a N-->C rainbow in this view; the N terminus is blue, while the C terminus is red. The heme ligand, and specifically the iron atom in the middle of the heme, is what binds oxygen in myoglobin. In this representation, the heme alone is shown in ball and stick form with its C, N and O atoms displayed as grey, blue, and red balls respectively. The iron atom is shown in orange, and is in spacefilling mode to better illustrate its interactions with the heme. The iron is bound by four nitrogen atoms found in the heme ring, as well as an amino acid from the protein chain. Which amino acid from the myoglobin protein binds to the iron? Notice that in the oxygenated state, the iron is in the plane of the heme ring. In the deoxy (no oxygen) state, the Fe atom is slightly above the plane of the heme, and a second amino acid coordinates with the iron in the heme ring.
