ヘモグロビン内部の2分子体の相対運動 This animated figure illustrates the motion of the dimer (thick coils towards front) relative to the dimer (thin coils towards rear) in the oxy-to-deoxy transition. Here, the coordinates of oxy- and deoxy-Hb have been superimposed at the interface so that the dimer remains stationary. The axis passing through the subunits. Pictures courtesy of J Lukin, Colorado dimer rotates by 15 degrees about an

subunit of hemoglobin, showing the oxy-to-deoxy transition with the heme held stationary. The protein backbone is shown as a cylindrical coil; helices A-H are colored from blue at the N-terminus to magenta at the C-terminus. The heme, shown schematically as a set of flat plates, is viewed edge-on. The polypeptide backbone is linked to the heme by the proximal histidine within the F helix (orange). This helix moves laterally by about 1 Å relative to the heme. subunit
