Myoglobin, molecular model. Myoglobin is a protein found in muscle tissue, where it binds to and stores oxygen to be used during strenuous exercise. The structure of the globin protein (brown coils) protects the haem group (space-filling model at the back) from being oxidised and destroyed by the oxygen (red) it carries. | |
