It comes down to <scene name='55/557585/Align_test/18'>eight divergent amino acids (elephant's amino acids in yellow halos, whale next to it, without halos)</scene>. Without these amino acids, myoglobin in both whale and elephants has a charge of ''+1''. With them, whale myoglobin has net charge of ''+4'', which is significantly higher than elephants' ''+2''. Importantly, all eight of these divergent amino acids are <scene name='52/523344/Elephantwhale/34'>surface residues</scene>. | It comes down to <scene name='55/557585/Align_test/18'>eight divergent amino acids (elephant's amino acids in yellow halos, whale next to it, without halos)</scene>.
