| Organism: | Oligobrachia mashikoi (Beard worm). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Spiralia; Lophotrochozoa; Annelida; Polychaeta; Sedentaria; Canalipalpata; Sabellida; Siboglinidae; Oligobrachia. | |
| Function: | The extracellular giant hemoglobin is able to bind and transport oxygen and hydrosulfide simultaneously and reversibly at two different sites. | |
| Subunit: | The 400 kDa hemoglobin consists of a spherical 24-mer arranged as a double layer of dome-shaped dodecamers. Each dodecamer is composed of the 3-fold trimer of the tetramer A1-A2-B1-B2 having one intra- tetramer (A1-B2) disulfide bond and one inter-tetramer (B1-B2) disulfide bond per tetramer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16204001}. | |
