Abstract excerpt
The hemoglobin variant rHb 0.1, which possesses a decreased ability to form subunits, stimulated lipid oxidation in washed fish muscle less effectively as compared to wild-type hemoglobin (rHb 0.0). This could be due to the lower hemin affinity and more rapid autoxidation rate of subunits as compared to tetramers. To differentiate between hemin affinity and autoxidation effects, ferrous V68T Mb was compared to...
