- The mutation in hemoglobin at B82 Lys → Asp results in lowered O,-binding affinity compared to normal hemoglobin. B82 is one of the residues that lines the 2,3-BPG binding site (see Figure 7.29; B82 is adjacent to His143). Based on the location of this residue and the differences between Lys and Asp, sug- gest a rationale for the observed reduction in Oz-binding affinity.arrow_forwardExplain the role that Gla residues play in complexes. Explain the role of vitamin K / warfarins in the synthesis of protease factors and list the Vitamin K-dependent factorsarrow_forward. The mutation in hemoglobin at B82 Lys → Asp results in lowered O2-binding affinity compared to normal hemoglobin. B82 is one of the residues that lines the 2,3-BPG binding site. A rationale for the observed reduction in O2-binding affinity is: A. The positive charge on the Asp side chain can form salt bridges with other negative charged side chains stabilizing R-conformer. B. The negative charge on the Asp side chain can form salt bridges with other positive charged side chains stabilizing the T-conformer. C. The Asp side chain mimics the positive charge on BPG. D. The Asp side chain mimics the negative charge on BPG. E. The Asp side chain is a nucleophile that attacks the BPG. F. BPG attacks the Asp side chain. G. Stabilization of the R-conformer favors O, release. H. Stabilization of the T-conformer favors O, release.arrow_forward
