Kendrew's studies of the globular myoglobin structure demonstrated that:
A) "corners" between $\alpha$-helical regions invariably lacked proline residue.
B) highly polar or charged amino-acid residues tended to be located interiorally.
C) myoglobin was completely different from hemoglobin, as expected.
D) the structure was very compact, with virtually no internal space available for water.
E) the $\alpha$ helix predicted by Pauling and Corey was not found in myoglobin.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kendrew's studies of the globular myoglobin structure demonstrated that the structure was very compact, with virtually no internal space available for water. This was a major discovery as it showed that the myoglobin molecule was specifically designed to hold onto oxygen molecules tightly, allowing for efficient oxygen transport in muscles.
