Chemical Structure
Biological Activity: Hemocyanin is an extracellular giant copper-containing glycoprotein. Hemocyanin can be found in the hemolymph of both mollusk and arthropod. Hemocyanin is responsible for oxygen transport. Hemocyanin is also involved in several physiological processes, such as energy storage, osmoregulation, molt cycle and exoskeleton formation. Hemocyanin in shrimp can enhance its immune response by modulating the p38 MAPK pathway. Hemocyanin from Penaeus monodon could act as an antiviral agent against a variety of viruses including DNA and RNA viruses. Hemocyanin from horseshoe crab Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda could possess a strong antimicrobial defense by the production of ROS activated with microbial proteases. Hemocyanin from L. vannamei would be effective against cervical cancer cell growth[1][2][3][4].
