CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in oxygen transport from the lung to the various
CC peripheral tissues.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterotetramer of two alpha chains and two beta chains.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Red blood cells.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Ghost bat has two hemoglobin components in the ratio
CC 3:2. They share identical beta-chains and differ by three replacements
CC in the alpha chains.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the globin family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC ProRule:PRU00238}.
