This page needs a lot of work. I propose adding the following sections: Function (general function and chemistry of heme proteins, an expanded version of function [heme]); a discussion about iron coordination and iron spin state; the role of heme distortion; types of ligands; how heme proteins are studied; and then a list of heme proteins. I will try as time permits.--Bjsamelsonjones 15:51, 26 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

The digression into coordination in the Hb/Mb subsection reads out of context. I would appreciate a precursor section discussing a little about the coordination and importance of certain peptides as they relate to the heme unit within. 137.53.241.15 (talk) 23:24, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Virginal compound? edit

What the heck is that (para. 1)? Despite a difference in spelling, a search of the web for "virginal compound" returns only results about vaginal topics.

HemeproteinHemoprotein – This is a procedural nomination, after the proposed speedy renaming of Category:Hemoproteins to Category:Hemeproteins was declined by User:Neodop. They note that "The article was moved to "hemeprotein" because that is the name of the Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) in the US as decided by a librarian many years ago. However, the common name is and has always been "hemoproteins" and Google Books shows a 10:1 ratio in favor, so the article has the wrong name, not the category." Either the article should be moved back or the proposed category rename should go ahead. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:28, 22 November 2020 (UTC) Relisting. SITH (talk) 16:59, 29 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
