Abstract

Hardly any molecule has attracted the interest of as many scientific disciplines as has haemoglobin. Contributions from physicists, chemists and biologists have combined to bring about a full understanding of the relationship between its structure and function. In particular, the finding that red cell metabolism and haemoglobin function are interdependent has provided important biological insights that have transformed the red cell from a seemingly inconspicuous biological unit into a model demonstrating several fundamental biological principles.
