Abstract excerpt
The replacement of beta 5(A2)Pro by Arg in Hb Warwickshire appears to be without an effect on the functional properties of human Hb A, despite adding two external positive charges close to the central cavity of the hemoglobin tetramer, along the dyad axis. To clarify the role of this portion of the molecule involved in oxygen-linked anion binding, we have engineered the recombinant hemoglobin alpha 2 beta...
