Why does the dissociation constant change for hemoglobin in high and low 02 concentrations? O Hemoglobin is a tetramer and subunits have decreased dissociation of 02 when a neighboring subunit has bound 02 O Hemoglobin is a monomeric protein with increased dissociation of 02 when a neighboring molecule has bound 02 O Hemoglobin is a tetramer and subunits have increased dissociation of 02 when a neighboring subunit has bound CO Hemoglobin is a tetramer and subunits have increased dissociation of 02 when a neighboring subunit has bound 02

You have discovered a new hemoglobin variant you are calling Hb-21. You have noticed the following from your studies of Hb-21: - The binding constant of Hb-21 is the same at pH 7.1 and 7.4.- The binding constant curves generated by Hb-21 and O2 are sigmoidal.- The Hill coefficient for Hb-21 is 3.-The binding constant for Hb-21 with O2 in the presence of 5mM 2,3-bisphosphglycerate is about 6-times lower instead of the 8-times lower that is observed under these conditions for the wild type enzyme. Use this information to answer questions: Based on this information which of these features of hemoglobin would you conclude are altered in Hb-21 as compared to the wild type hemoglobin? ____ the cooperativity.____ the amount of T versus R state in the tissues. ____ the Bohr effect. What is the major issue for an individual with the Hb-21 variant? Explain exactly what aspect of hemoglobin’s function is altered.

A protein X is extensively methylated at lysine residues, converting it to protein Y. If the protein is to be separated by cation exchanger, what would be the order of elution? CAX, followed by Y OB. Y, followed by X OC. Both will be eluted at the same time O D. Both will bind with the matrix in the exchanger and will not elute out OE. A cation exchanger is not the ideal matrix for the separation
