2) We discussed in class how the molecule 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) is an inhibitor of hemoglobin (Hb). Answer the following questions about BPG and its regulation of oxygen binding: a) Would BPG have any effect on myoglobin’s ability to bind or release oxygen? If so, describe how BPG would affect myoglobin. If not, why? b) Based on the observation that BPG binds preferentially to partially deoxygenated Hb, briefly explain (1-2 sentences) where BPG is most likely to be most effective on...

How does BPG, or 2,3-biphophoglycerate produce the shift in
the oxygen bunding curves shown? (BPG works to effect the binding
of oxygen to hemoglobin) Circle the correct choice.
a) BPG binds to the R state of hemoglobin tetramer.
b) BPG binds to the T state of hemoglobin tetramer.
c) BPG binds to the heme group, which blocks access to the
oxygen
d) BPG oxidizes the iron (II) in the heme group to the iron
(III), preventing oxygen from binding.

1 Which state of hemoglobin, R or T, is stabilized by BPG, and how does PBG affect oxygen binding to hemoglobin? 2 Compare the binding of hemoglobin to oxygen and carbon dioxide. This question requires you to compare side by side oxygen and carbon dioxide binding to hemoglobin, not to define them independently

In a mutant human hemoglobin, a mutation in the β chain abolishes binding of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) to the tetramer. How will this mutation influence the ability of this hemoglobin to give up oxygen at the peripheral tissues? Explain, briefly.

Regarding the effects of the affinity of hemoglobin when 2,3-biphosphoglycerate (BPG) is regulating, analyze the biochemical mechanisms that occur to cause the catch and release of oxygen in this manner. Which of the following structural changes occur when deoxyhemoglobin binds to oxygen? Choose the two correct answers and briefly explain why the other two are incorrect: 1.) The proximal histidine (His F8) moves helix F towards the planar heme. 2.) The heme releases CO2 from the other subunits. 3.) A...

Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) is a byproduct of glycolysis. It can bind to the deoxy state of hemoglobin but not the oxy state. Complete the sentence to explain how you expect BPG to shift the Hb-oxygen binding equilibrium. Addition of BPG will _______ because the system needs to compensate for _______ in _________ due to BPG.
