Protein Name & Synonyms:
MYOGLOBIN,
Myoglobin is a heme containing oxygen carrier that stores oxygen in muscles. It consists of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of 16,000Da. Sequence analysis shows that it is structurally related to haemoglobin. Following myocardial infraction myoglobin is lost from cardiac muscle cells and its presence in serum may be used as a diagnostic indicator.
Donors were tested and found negative for HBsAg, HCV, syphilis and HTLV by FDA approved methods. As no test can completely guarantee this material to be free of pathogens it should be handled as potentially infectious.
