Allosteric Effects The Hill coefficient (nH) for myoglobin and hemoglobin are respectively 1.0 and 2.8 1.2 and 4.5 2.8 and 1.0 4.5 and 1.2 1.0 and 2.8 1.2 and 4.5 2.8 and 1.0 4.5 and 1.2 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Allosteric Effects Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) cannot bind to the oxygenated R state of hemoglobin because it is displaced from the heme by oxygen its binding pocket becomes too small to accommodate BPG it is displaced from the heme by movement of the proximal histidine BPG binds to the R state with the same affinity as the T state it is displaced from the heme by oxygen its binding pocket becomes too small to accommodate BPG it is displaced from the heme by movement of the proximal histidine BPG binds to the R state with the same affinity as the T state ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
