Myoglobin is a monomeric protein that acts as a secondary oxygen transpoer and binder in the muscle tissues. Fuhermore, the teiary feature of a myoglobin resembles a water-soluble globule protein characteristics. The diffusion and use of oxygen in the muscles are necessary for the bodily system processes such as respiration. Myoglobin has 8 right-handed a-helices separately forming a polypeptide chain and each contains a single heme prosthetic group with a central bound iron atom.Ref: Text book of biochemistry for medical students. seventh edition, page no: 240 and 294
