Question:

Myoglobin is a protein that participates in oxygen transport. For myoglobin in water at 20°C, s = 2.04 × 10−13s, D = 1.13 × 10−10 m2 s−1, and V = 0.740 cm g−1. The density of water is 0.998 g cm3 and the viscosity is 1.002 cP at this temperature.

a. Using the information provided, estimate the size of myoglobin.

b. What is the molecular weight of myoglobin?
