2. (a) The binding site of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) (red stick figure) in the deoxyhemo- globin molecule is illustrated below. Note that the two phosphate groups and the carboxylate group of the BPG molecule confer strong, negative electrostatic character to the molecule. B₁-subunit 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. B₁ (b) Mutant Hemoglobin Hb Raleigh The mutant hemoglobins listed below each have a mutant amino acid in the ß-subunit directly in or in the vicinity of the BPG binding site. Rank the affinity of the following mutant hemoglobins for binding BPG (red stick figure above).. Explain your reasoning. The notation, for instance, as given for Hb Raleigh Val(31) Ala means that Val-1, the first amino acid residue of the ß-subunit, has been substituted by Ala.
