ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to modified hemoglobin-like compounds. The novel compounds include a globin-like polypeptide containing at least two di-alpha domains and multimeric hemoglobin-like proteins having a core hemoglobin-like moiety directly attached to at least two other hemoglobin-like moieties. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding the novel polypeptides. Methods of making the multimeric hemoglobin-like proteins are also provided, as well as compositions containing the proteins.
