I chose myoglobin Myoglobin is a protein that transports oxygen around skeletal and cardiac muscles, and scavenges nitric oxide. I found myoglobin interesting because of it’s prevalence in mammals that dive in water, like whales and dolphins, where in there muscles, higher concentrations of myoglobin can be found. NCBI protein sequence for myoglobin (specifically: myoglobin isoform 1 [Homo sapiens])
