Researchers at the BSC and the IRB Barcelona unveil crucial information about the protein transporter of oxygen, which opens up the possibility to optimize its function by introducing modifications. The transport of oxygen in blood is undertaken by hemoglobin, the largest component of red blood cells. This protein collects oxygen in respiratory organs, mainly in the lungs, and releases it in tissues in order to generate the energy necessary for cell survival.
Hemoglobin (Hb), the iron-containing respiratory protein in red blood cells, is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.Measured in grams per deciliter (g/dL), hemoglobin levels indicate the bloodâs ability to carry oxygen and iron.Too little iron interferes with vital functions and leads to morbidity and mortality. Normal hemoglobin levels differ between males and females, ranging from: 1  12-16 g/dL for women and.emoglobin (Hb), the iron-containing respiratory protein in red blood cells, is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
