approved gene symbol NGB. Neuroglobin (151 amino acids) is an evolutionarily highly conserved protein (Burmester et al, 2000). Neuroglobin, which exists as a 16 kDa monomeric protein, is a heme protein only distantly related to other globins such as hemoglobin or myoglobin. Like hemoglobin and myoglobin, neuroglobin expression can be induced also by hemin (Zhu Y et al, 2002).
Neuroglobin, so named after its initial discovery in brain neurons, is expressed predominantly in neurons and Purkinje cells
