Oxyhemoglobin
Hemoglobin A (HbA), also known as adult hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1 or α2β2, is the most common human hemoglobin tetramer, accounting for over 97% of the total red blood cell hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is an oxygen-binding protein, found in erythrocytes, which transports oxygen from the lungs to the tissues.
is formed during physiological respiration when oxygen binds to the heme component of the protein hemoglobin in red blood cells. This process occurs in the pulmonary capillaries adjacent to the alveoli of the lungs.
What is Oxyhaemoglobin where it is found in body?
Oxyhemoglobin is carried in the red blood cells to all body tissues, where oxygen is delivered to the cells to supply their needs (according to oxygen pressure gradient).
How is the Oxyhaemoglobin formed?
the bright-red substance formed when the pigment haemoglobin in red blood cells combines reversibly with oxygen. Oxyhaemoglobin is the form in which oxygen is transported from the lungs to the tissues, where the oxygen is released.
