## Abstract Recent studies have demonstrated that hemoglobins isolated from Antarctic fish undergo peculiar oxidation processes. Here we show, by combining crystallographic and spectroscopic data, that the oxidation pathway of __Trematomus bernacchii__ hemoglobin (HbTb) is distinct from that observ
## Abstract The adult hemoglobins of 15 species of teleost and the midgestation fetal hemoglobin of the seaperch __Embiotoca lateralis__ show a pronounced decrease in oxygenβcarrying capacity at low pH, a Root effect. All of these fishes lack a functional swim bladder, which is generally thought to
