Globular proteins or spheroprotein are spherical ( globe like) proteins and are one of the common protein types ( the other being fibrous, disordered and membrane proteins). Globular proteins are somewhat water-soluble ( forming colloids in water), unlike the fibrous or membrane proteins. There are multiple fold classes of globular proteins, since there are many different architectures that can fold into a roughly spherical shape.
The term globin can refer more specifically to proteins including the globin fold.

Explanation:
Fibrous proteins are structural proteins which are involved in the formation of bones, muscles, connective tissues, etc. Keratin and collagen are some examples of fibrous protein. Globular proteins are an important part of the biological processes in living organisms. They act as transport proteins, enzymes, hormones, etc. Some examples of globular proteins are haemoglobin, alpha immunoglobulin, beta immunoglobulin, etc.
