Stylized structural diagram of hemoglobin (Hb), showing a tetrameric protein composed of four globin chains arranged as two α and two β subunits, each containing a heme prosthetic group with central ferrous iron (Fe2+). In biological hierarchy, this protein resides in the cytosol of the erythrocyte (RBC), a cell within blood tissue of the circulatory system. In biochemistry, structural biology, physiology, and hematology, Hb enables cooperative binding and transport of O2 (oxygen) and facilitates CO2 carriage and buffering. The illustration represents a protein complex rather than a whole cell or organ.
