Globulin

What do we mean by globulin?

Any of a class of proteins that are found extensively in blood plasma, milk, muscle, and plant seeds and that are insoluble in pure water and half saturated ammonium sulfate, soluble in dilute salt solution, and coagulable by heat. noun

The general name of a class of native proteids allied to the albumins, but distinguished from them by being insoluble in pure water. noun

A protein body occurring, mixed with albumin, in the cells of the crystalline lens of the eye (whence it is also called crystallin). noun

In botany, a name given by Turpin to starch-granules, and by Kieser to chlorophyl-granules, and now applied to such proteids as are soluble in a strong solution of salt, but not in pure water. noun

An albuminous body, insoluble in water, but soluble in dilute solutions of salt. It is present in the red blood corpuscles united with hæmatin to form hæmoglobin. It is also found in the crystalline lens of the eye, and in blood serum, and is sometimes called crystallin. In the plural the word is applied to a group of proteid substances such as vitellin, myosin, fibrinogen, etc., all insoluble in water, but soluble in dilute salt solutions. noun

A protein found in blood and various other structures; one of the two parts of hæmoglobin. noun

A family of proteins found in blood and milk and muscle and in plant seed noun

Any of a group of simple proteins, soluble in water only in the presence of salts, that are coagulated by heat; one of the two parts of haemoglobin.
