HEMOGLOBIN
Dr. Suyi
CONTENTS
Hemoglobin
Allosteric property
Homotropic effect
Oxygen-Hb dissociation curve
Heterotropic effect
Conclusion
HEMOGLOBIN
Found exclusively in red blood cells (RBC)
Metallo-globular protein
Composed of heme (a prosthetic group) and 4 globin polypeptide
chains
Function of Hb – transport of respiratory gases
20-30T of RBCs
Carry 270M of Hb
HEME
Iron containing porphyrin
Porphyrins – complex compounds with a tetrapyrrole structure
HEME POCKET
Heme pocket β – subunit is
blocked by valine
GLOBIN
2 types of globin – α and β
α – 141 amino acids, folded in 7 α helixes
β – 146 amino acids, folded in 8 α helixes
Hemoglobin tetramer - composed of two identical dimers, (αβ)1 and
(αβ)2
574 amino acids

STRUCTURE OF HEMOGLOBIN
Schematic diagram showing structural changes resulting from oxygenation and
deoxygenation of hemoglobin
ALLOSTERIC EFFECT
A protein that exhibits changes in ligand (substrate) affinity under
the influence of small molecules (allosteric effectors) → Km decrease
Protein – multisubunits
Effectors – bind to sites that are spartially distinct from the ligand
binding site
E.g. Hb, key enzymes of the metabolic pathway
Homotropic – an allosteric effector affect its own binding affinity
Heterotropic – an allosteric effector is different from the ligand
whose binding is altered
HEMOGLOBIN
Homotropic effect
Oxygen (positive allosteric
effector)
Heterotropic effect
H+ (Bohr effect)
CO2
2,3-BPG
Negative
allosteric
effectors
HOMOTROPIC EFFECT
Pulls the proximal His F8
F helix, EF corner, FG corner shifted
Conformational changes ->
dissolution of existing non covalent
bonds and formation of new ones at
the heterodimer interfaces
α1
α2

β2
POSITIVE COOPERATIVE EFFECT
α 1 β 1 and α 2 β 2 dimers
rotate approximately 15 degrees
with respect to one another
T to R form
Binding of 1st O2 to one subunit
facilitate the serial binding of O2
to remaining subunits
Increasing affinity → Positive
cooperative effect
Oxygen-Hb dissociation curve
Flat upper part → blood loads
O2 in spite of a large decrease in
PO2
Steep middle and lower part →
deliver more oxygen to the
tissues in response to small
changes in PO2
P50 → PO2 at which Hb is half
saturated with O2
P50 α 1/affinity
Bohr Effect
 The release of oxygen from hemoglobin is enhanced when the pH is
lowered or when the hemoglobin is in the presence of an increased
pCO2
The deoxy form of hemoglobin has a greater affinity for protons
than does oxyhemoglobin.
An increase in the concentration of protons → protonated → able to
form ionic bonds (salt bridges) → stabilize the T form of hemoglobin
→ decrease in oxygen affinity
Oxygen-Hb dissociation curve
Shift the curve to the right
Permits efficient unloading of
O2 to the tissues
2,3-Bisphosphoglycerate
RBC glycolysis → abundant in RBC
Important negative allosteric effector
Bind to Hb in central cavity
Stabilize T form by forming salt bridges

Eight cation groups
Five anionic groups of BPG
+
The cleft is
too narrow in
HbO2 state.
Factors affecting 2,3-BPG concentration
Increase
Hormones – thyroid, GH,
androgens
Exercise
Anemia
Chronic hypoxia
High altitude
Decrease
Acidosis (pH↓)
Without 2,3-BPG, the O2
saturation curve of Hb would
approach to Mb
CONCLUSION
Diffusion greatly limits the size of organisms. Circulatory systems
overcome this. Hemoglobin are also required because O2 is only
slightly soluble in blood.
Allosteric effect allows the Hb to get efficient transport of oxygen.
