Source of residual Bohr effect in hemoglobin oxidation.
The hemoglobin oxidation Bohr effect is larger than the ligation Bohr effect, even when the former is corrected for any ionization of the water molecule bound to the ferric iron of methemoglobin. This residual oxidation Bohr effect is here shown to be solely caused by the influence of the positively charged ferriheme, and is abolished when the oxidized heme binds an anion. This result frees the...
متن کاملStudies on the Oxidation-reduction Potentials of Heme Proteins. v. the Oxidation Bohr Effect in Normal Human Hemoglobin and Human Hemoglobin Digested with Carboxypeptidase A.
In its narrower sense the term Bohr effect is used to describe the interaction between oxygen and proton as they combine with hemoglobin and other respiratory proteins. It may, however, be legitimately extended to include the interaction of proton with any ligand in any of these proteins. It is in this larger sense that we use the term in this paper to refer to the effects of pH on the oxidatio...
متن کاملStudies on the Bohr Effect of Sheep Hemoglobin
A simple method is described for the measurement of pH changes in hemoglobin solutions on oxygenation and reduction. Data are presented establishing the absence of a Bohr effect in p-chloromercuribenzoate [PCMB] treated hemoglobin. The influence of a number of sulfhydryl inhibitors on the Bohr effect of a hemoglobin solution is reported and an interpretation based on steric factors in the prote...
متن کاملThe kinetics of the alkaline Bohr effect of human hemoglobin.
Liganded hemoglobin is a stronger acid than ligand-free hemoglobin. The kinetics of the transformation between these states was studied in the pH range 6.9 to 9.0 in 0.3 M NaCl with a pH indicator (phenol red or m-cresol purple) to follow the pH changes accompanying flash photolysis of human carbon monoxide hemoglobin. At least three distinct processes involving protons were detected kineticall...
متن کاملThe effect of potassium chloride on the Bohr effect of human hemoglobin.
The normal and differential titration curves of liganded and unliganded hemoglobin were measured at various KCl concentrations (0.1 to 2.0 M). In this range of KCl concentrations, the curves for deoxyhemoglobin showed no salt-induced pK changes of titratable groups. In the same salt concentration range oxyhemoglobin showed a marked change in titration behavior which could only be accounted for ...
