CC   -!- FUNCTION: Involved in oxygen transport from gills to the various
CC       peripheral tissues.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Heterotetramer of two alpha chains and two beta chains.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Red blood cells. {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This fish has two hemoglobins: cathodic and anodic.
CC       Cathodic Hb has high oxygen affinity, low cooperativity and displays a
CC       small reverse Bohr effect. Anodic Hb has low oxygen affinity and
CC       cooperativity and displays a normal Bohr effect.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the globin family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC       ProRule:PRU00238}.
