What does hemoglobin transport?
|
h+, co2, and o2
|
|
3 ways co2 is transported in the blood?
|
1. h+ binds to heme, hco3- in blood
2. dissolves in plasma 3. directly bind to heme |
|
What happens at low pH?
|
his is protonated and stabilized the T state, lower affinity
|
|
What is BPG? Where does it bind?
|
It's a negatively charged particle, binds to the middle of the 4 subunits, you get stabilized t- state

|
dark band(thick), light band(thin), myosin, actin, z-disc
