#conjugated_protein__compound_protein a protein complex combining amino acids with other substances supertype: protein any of a large group of nitrogenous organic compounds that are essential constituents of living cells; consist of long chains of polypeptides subtype: glycoprotein a conjugated protein having a carbohydrate component subtype: mucin a nitrogenous substance found in mucous secretions; a lubricant that protects body surfaces subtype: lectin any of several plant glycoproteins that act like specific antibodies but are not antibodies in that they are not evoked by an antigenic stimulus subtype: mucoid any of several glycoproteins similar to mucin subtype: transferrin__betaglobulin__siderophilin glycoprotein that carries iron in the blood subtype: hemoprotein__haemoprotein a conjugated protein linked to an iron-porphyrin compound subtype: hemoglobin__haemoglobin__Hb a hemoprotein composed of globin and heme that gives red blood cells their characteristic color; function primarily to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues; "fish have simpler hemoglobin than mammals" subtype: oxyhemoglobin__oxyhaemoglobin the bright red hemoglobin that is a combination of hemoglobin and oxygen from the lungs; "oxyhemoglobin transports oxygen to the cells of the body" subtype: myoglobin a hemoprotein that receives oxygen from hemoglobin and stores it in the tissues until needed subtype: cytochrome a class of hemoprotein whose principle biological function is as carriers of electrons subtype: cytochrome_c the most abundant and stable cytochrome; involved in energy transfer subtype: lipoprotein a conjugated protein having a lipid component; the principal means for transporting lipids in the blood subtype: high-density_lipoprotein__HDL__alpha-lipoportein a lipoprotein that transports cholesterol in the blood; composed of a high proportion of protein and relatively little cholesterol; high levels are thought to be associated with decreased risk of coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis subtype: low-density_lipoprotein__lowdensitylipoprotein__LDL__ldl__beta-lipoprotein a lipoprotein that transports cholesterol in the blood; composed of moderate amount of protein and a large amount of cholesterol; high levels are thought to be associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis subtype: very_low_density_lipoprotein__VLDL large lipoproteins rich in triglycerides; VLDLs circulate through the blood giving up their triglycerides to fat and muscle tissue until the VLDL remnants are modified and converted into LDL
