Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen and carbon dioxide transport, which is facilitated by RBC‐encapsulated hemoglobin (Hb) and carbonic anhydrase (CA). In addition, RBCs are constantly exposed to oxidative stress due to the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during Hb auto‐oxidation.

Protein Z is a vitamin K‐dependent anticoagulant with elusive molecular functions. Herein, it is shown that heme binds to protein Z and induces conformational changes. One histidine‐based heme‐binding motif is identified. High heme‐binding affinity and functional effects are demonstrated on protein level. These findings shed new light on the structural
