(a)
To explain: The way in which the hemoglobin Rainier differ from the normal hemoglobin with respect to the oxygen affinity.
Concept introduction: Hemoglobin is the protein that has iron ion bound to it and carries the oxygen from the lungs to rest of the parts of the body. Several hemoglobin variants have been discovered. One such variant is the hemoglobin Rainier. The hemoglobin exists in two states T state and R state as proposed by the Scientist Max Perutz, that are also the stable conformational states of the hemoglobin.
(b)
To explain: The way in which the hemoglobin Rainier differs from the normal hemoglobin with respect to the Bohr Effect.
Concept introduction: Hemoglobin is the protein that has iron ion bound to it and carries the oxygen from the lungs to rest of the parts of the body. Several hemoglobin variants have been discovered. One such variant is the hemoglobin Rainier.
(c)
To explain: The way in which the hemoglobin Rainier differs from the normal hemoglobin with respect to the Hill constant.
Concept introduction: Hemoglobin is the protein that has iron ion bound to it and carries the oxygen from the lungs to rest of the parts of the body. Several hemoglobin variants have been discovered. One such variant is the hemoglobin Rainier.
