In one type of hemoglobin mutant the amino acid change generates a strongionic interaction stabilizing the T state conformation, but only underconditions of lower pH, e.g., at pH 7.2 compared to pH 7.6. Explain whateffect this mutation would have on the amount of O2 delivered to the tissue.More O2 delivered to the tissue because the R-T equilibrium would beshifted to the T state in tissues.More O₂ delivered to the tissue because the R-T equilibrium would beshifted to the T state in lungs.Less O2 delivered to the tissue because the R-T equilibrium would beshifted to the T state in lungs.Less O₂ delivered to the tissue because the R-T equilibrium would beshifted to the T state in tissues.More O2 delivered to the tissue because the R-T equilibrium would beshifted to the R state in tissues.

Carbonic anhydrase of erythrocytes (Mr 30,000) has one of the highest turnover numbers known. It catalyzes the reversible hydration of CO₂. H₂O + CO₂ 2 H₂CO3 This is an important process in the transport of CO₂ from the tissues to the lungs.

Antithrombin III forms an irreversible complex with thrombin but not with prothrombin. What is the most likely reason for this difference in reactivity?
The action of this enzyme found in Beano alpha-galactosidase can also according to many sources be used to remove ____________ from the red blood cells of the B blood group and convert them to the O blood group. Since the _________ molecules (composed of many monomers) are connnected to protein on the membrane and also the cell membrane of the red blood cell itself; therefore these molecules help create cell identity and recognition, and when the are connected to proteins they are known as _________ , but if they are connected to the cell membrane itself they are known as ____________. This is a good question for reviewing the structures on the cell membrane as well. The only difference between the B-blood type and the O-blood type is ________. The following is a diagram of the differences of these molecules that determine blood type. List of answers: disaccharid, proteins ,dehydration synthesis ,nucleotide ,amino acids ,nucleic acids ,lactose ,fructose ,sucrose ,hydrolysis…

What is the role of 2, 3-Bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) in the function of haemoglobin as an oxygen carrier molecule? Explain the binding mechanism and effect of 2,3-BPG leading to the reduced oxygen binding affinity for haemoglobin and transitions in the T (deoxygenated) and R (oxygenated) states of haemoglobin.
In considering active transport by Na + -K + -ATPase at body temperature (37 o C), 3 Na+ are pumped out of the cell and 2 K + are pumped in for each ATP that is hydrolyzed to ADP + P i . Given that underyour experimental conditions, the DG for ATP hydrolysis is -10 kcal/mol, and that V is -60 mV, and that the pump maintains the internal Na + at 10mM, external Na + at 120 mM, internal K + at 120 mM and external K + at 8mM, what is the efficiency of the pump (i.e., what fraction of the energy available from ATP hydrolysis is required to drive transport at the provided levels)?

Studies of oxygen transport in pregnant mammals show that the O2-saturation curves of fetal and maternal blood are markedly different when measured under the same conditions. Fetal erythrocytes contain astructural variant of hemoglobin, HbF, consisting of two α and two γ subunits (α2 γ2 ), whereas maternal erythrocytes contain HbA (α2β2).(a) Which hemoglobin has a higher affinity for oxygen under physiological conditions, HbA or HbF? Explain.(b) What is the physiological significance of the different O2 affinities?(c) When all the BPG is carefully removed from samples of HbA and HbF, the measured O2 -saturation curves (and consequently the O2 affinities) are displaced to the left. However, HbA now has a greater affinity for oxygen than does HbF. When BPG is reintroduced, the O2 -saturation curves return to normal, as shown in the graph. What is the effect of BPG on the O2 affinity of hemoglobin? How can the above information be used to explain the different O2 affinities of fetal and…
