How does HbS aggregation occur in sickle-cell anemia? Place the steps in the correct order. Note that deoxyhemoglobin is in the T state; oxyhemoglobin is in the R state. No aggregation R state Hb shifts to T state Hb. Sickled red blood cell Answer Bank Val interacts with the pocket of a ß chain on another HbS. Additional T state HbS interact with the growing aggregate to form an insoluble fiber. [0₂] decreases due to vigorous exercise or high altitude.
