Hemoglobin Rothschild: Structural Rationalization of Decreased O <sub>2</sub> Affinity as a Consequence of a β37(C3)Trp→Arg Mutation
2024-06-06
Abstract excerpt
Hemoglobin Rothschild is characterized by a β37(C3)Trp→Arg mutation that severely impairs wildtype hemoglobin function. This mutation has previously been documented to diminish conformational cooperativity, and thereby uppercut oxygen affinity. While the mutation is known to have direct implications on the hinge region at the α 1 β 2 interface, the immediate and indirect manifestations of this mutation have not b...
