Myoglobin (seembol Mb or MB) is an airn- an oxygen-bindin protein foond in the muscle tissue o vertebrates in general an in awmaist aw mammals. It is relatit tae hemoglobin, which is the airn- an oxygen-bindin protein in bluid, speceefically in the reid bluid cells. In humans, myoglobin is anly foond in the bluidstream efter muscle injury. It is an abnormal findin, an can be diagnostically relevant when foond in bluid.
