Computer graphics of haemoglobin blood substitute
Computer graphics representation of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying molecule of blood, constructed during research for a blood substitute at the U.K. Medical Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge. Haemoglobins four protein chains are shown in blue & purple, with the four haem groups, the oxygen-binding sites, in red. MRC scientists used recombinant DNA techniques on the bacterium Escherichia coli, to synthesize human haemoglobin. The need to develop a blood substitute has arisen because of concern over contamination of stocks by pathogens such as HIV, the virus causing AIDS

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer graphics representation of haemoglobin, the vital oxygen-carrying molecule found in blood. Constructed during groundbreaking research for a blood substitute at the esteemed U. K. Medical Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, this image reveals the intricate structure and complexity of haemoglobin. The four protein chains that make up haemoglobin are depicted here in mesmerizing shades of blue and purple, while the four haem groups – responsible for binding oxygen – are strikingly highlighted in vibrant red. MRC scientists utilized innovative recombinant DNA techniques on Escherichia coli bacteria to synthesize human haemoglobin, pushing the boundaries of scientific discovery. The development of a blood substitute has become imperative due to concerns surrounding contamination of existing stocks by pathogens like HIV, which causes AIDS. This pioneering research aims to address these challenges and ensure safer alternatives for patients requiring transfusions. Through this visually stunning depiction, Science Photo Library offers us an insight into the remarkable world within our own bodies. The fusion between anatomy, DNA technology, human biology, bacteria studies, red blood cells, and synthetic haemoglobin is beautifully captured in this single frame. As we marvel at this extraordinary image created through cutting-edge computer graphics technology and ground-breaking scientific advancements; we are reminded once again how science continues to push boundaries and revolutionize our understanding of life itself.
