A method of determining glycated hemoglobin is provided, by which a ratio of the glycated hemoglobin in a sample can be determined accurately and easily. The ratio of glycated hemoglobin can be determined by degrading a glycated hemoglobin in a whole blood sample selectively with a protease to give a glycated hemoglobin degradation product`; causing a redox reaction between a glycation site of the glycated hemoglobin degradation product and a fructosyl amino acid oxidoreductase; and determining this redox reaction. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, in a whole blood sample, there is a correlation between the ratio of the glycated hemoglobin determined by this method and an HbA1c concentration. Thus, without determining the glycated alpha-amino group as a characteristic structure of HbA1c, an amount of HbA1c can be determined accurately and easily from the determined ratio of the glycated hemoglobin.

The invention relates to a pluri-negative-charge hemoglobin alpha subunit, and relates to a component of a hemoglobin red blood cell substitute artificial blood. The invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine. The pluri-negative-charge hemoglobin alpha subunit is a fusion protein composed of human serum albumin and human hemoglobin alpha subunit. The human serum albumin and human hemoglobin are connected through connecting peptide.
