For 10 points, name thisoxygen-carrying protein that gives blood its color.
The Lepore form of this protein is linked to silent strokes. This protein is improperly oxidized inchildren who ingest nitrates. The Bart form of this molecule is present in hydrops fetalis. Thisprotein switches its subunits between the taut form and relaxed form in response to the allostericregulator 2,3-BPG. In the Bohr effect, this molecule shifts its binding curve to the right in an (*)acidic environment. CO2 can bind to its N-terminus, and a mutation in this tetrameric protein's beta chaincauses it to aggregate. That mutation is a glutamate to valine substitution, which causes sickle cell anemia.This protein contains a porphyrin prosthetic group with a central iron atom.
