The Role of 2,3-Diphophoglycerate

The Role of 2,3-Diphophoglycerate      The major function of the hemoglobin molecule is the transport of oxygen to the tissues. The oxygen affinity of the hemoglobin molecule is associated with the spatial rearrangement of the molecule and is regulated by the concentration of phosphates, particularly 2,3-DPG...

Iron Distribution

Iron-containing compounds in the body are one of two types: Functional compounds that serve in metabolic (hemoglobin, myoglobin, iron-responsive element-binding protein) or enzymatic (cytochromes, cytochrome oxygenase, catalase, peroxidase) functions Compounds that serve as transport (transferrin, transferrin receptor) or storage forms...

Structure of Hemoglobin

     Hemoglobin is the life-giving substance of every red blood cell, the oxygen-carrying component of the red blood cell. Each red blood cell is nothing more than a fluid-filled sac, with the fluid being hemoglobin. Every organ in the human body depends on oxygenation for growth and function, and this process is ultimately...
