Question
Chapter 23, Problem 53E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
“Common structural features among hemoglobin, cytochrome c and chlorophyll” should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Tetrapyrrole ring is called porphyrin similar to porphin ring. The tetrapyrrole ring is present in all the three compound.
Hemoglobin is a protein globular in shape having heme group embedded in it and iron protoporphyrin group which is present in cytochrome is linked to protein through thioester bridges whereas four nitrogen atom surrounding the central magnesium in chlorophyll.
