[RASMB] Hb vbar...

[DJ Scott, Biochemistry]

Hello everyone in RASMB-land.

One question that was asked of me by an old colleague that I am unable 
to answer:

What is the vbar of haemoglobin? Surely the haem groups make a 
contribution and we cannot simply estimate it from the amino acid 
sequence.

cheers

Dave Scott.

p.s. answers such as "go and measure it" are not feasible as he does 
not have access to a density meter!
