Detailed explanation-1: -Myoglobin is an oxygen-binding protein located primarily in muscles. It contains one heme group per molecule and has a structure similar to that of hemoglobin monomers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Myoglobin (symbol Mb or MB) is an iron-and oxygen-binding protein found in the cardiac and skeletal muscle tissue of vertebrates in general and in almost all mammals. Myoglobin is distantly related to hemoglobin.
Detailed explanation-3: -Myoglobin is a globular protein found in muscle tissue that helps to store and transport oxygen. It is similar to hemoglobin, found in red blood cells, but myoglobin is much more abundant in muscle tissue. Myoglobin is responsible for the red color of muscle tissue and is essential for muscle function.
