Hemoglobin can adopt two distinct conformations called R and T. a) Explain the difference in these two conformations in terms of affinity towards oxygen. b) 2,3- bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) is an allosteric effect of hemoglobin that is found in red blood cell in high concentration (2 mM). How does the presence of 2,3-BPG modifies hemoglobin interactions with oxygen. c) What is the Bohr Effect?
Homework Answers
a)T state has more affinity for oxygen than R state
B)it also acts to stabilize the oxygen affinity of haemoglobin during t state.
C)haemoglobin binding affinity to oxygen is inversely proportional to acidity and to concentration of Co2

Case 8 Hemoglobin, the Oxygen Carrier Focus concept A mutation in the gene for hemoglobin results in an altered protein responsible for the disease sickle cell anemia. An understanding of the biochemistry of the disease may suggest possible treatments Prerequisite Hemoglobin structure and function concepts Background Normal adult hemoglobin is called Hemoglobin A (Hb A). Ninety-eight percent ofaduk hemoglobin is Hb A and 2% is Hb A. There are other forms of hemoglobin. For example, the deve loping fetus has...
