The mutation in hemoglobin at B82 Lys → Asp results in lowered 02-binding affinity compared to normal hemoglobin. B82 is one of the residues that lines the 2,3-BPG binding site. A rationale for the observed reduction in O2-binding affinity is: A. The positive charge on the Asp side chain can form salt bridges with other negative charged side chains stabilizing R-conformer. B. The negative charge on the Asp side chain can form salt bridges with other positive charged side chains stabilizing the T-conformer. C. The Asp side chain mimics the positive charge on BPG. D. The Asp side chain mimics the negative charge on BPG. E. The Asp side chain is a nucleophile that attacks the BPG. BPG attacks the Asp side chain. G. Stabilization of the R-conformer favors 0, release. H. Stabilization of the T-conformer favors 0, release. F.
