Allosteric effectors of hemoglobin

Case Study The Discovery and Development of Allosteric Effectors of Hemoglobin... [Pg.462]

When erythrocytes circulate in underoxygenated tissue, release of 2,3-dipho-sphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) is increased. This release of 2,3-DPG lowers the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen (2,3-DPG is an allosteric effector of hemoglobin). As a consequence, extraction of oxygen from blood by tissues is increased. Thus, PGK inhibition is a possible approach for treating cardiac and respiratory disorders. [Pg.233]

Glycerate-2,3-bisphosphate was encountered as an allosteric effector of hemoglobin. [Pg.892]

The Gd-DOTP chelate (Fig. 18) has been examined as a potential allosteric effector of hemoglobin [113]. Human hemoglobin is a tetrameric protein whose quaternary structure is affected by an allosteric effector. Binding of this low molecular weight species stabilizes the so-called T-form of hemoglobin, which is characterized by a low oxygen affinity, as opposed to the R-form, a very efficient... [Pg.153]
