Cartoon representation (tertiary structure) of a single beta chain from human deoxyhemoglobin PDBID: 2HHB. Heme and His92 are shown as atoms and bonds. Great for teaching protein structure. If printed in TPU, can be used to show protein folding/unfolding.

Created for the Biochemistry and Structural Biology class and to respond to the following Biomolecular visualization learning goals (BioMolViz; DOI:10.1002/bmb.20991)

TC3.01 Students can recognize that the groups that comprise a functional site only require proper arrangement in three-dimensional space rather than a particular order or position in the linear sequence. (Amateur)

SF1.02 Students recognize that the size and shape of the ligand must match the size and shape of the binding site. (Novice, Amateur)
