Explanation
The four globin chains (two alpha chains and two beta chains) are depicted as something like "folded worms". Each globin chain contains a small, rectangular heme group. In the center of each heme group is an iron (Fe) 
atom. Indicated on each of the two beta chains (green and yellow) is the location of the HbS (sickle-cell) mutation.Tags:
