Globular Proteins
OVERVIEW
The previous chapter
described the types of secondary and tertiary structures that are the bricks
and mortar of protein architecture. By arranging these fundamental structural
elements in different combinations, widely diverse proteins can be constructed
that are capable of various specialized functions. This chapter examines the
relationship between structure and function for the clinically important
globular hemeproteins. Fibrous structural proteins are discussed in Chapter 4.
