This protein's function is affected by pH in a phenomenon called the Bohr shift.
A predisposition for strokes is caused by one variant of this protein named for Lepore. This protein's function is affected by pH in a phenomenon called the Bohr shift. A cofactor to this protein consists of a porphyrin ring bound to an (*) iron atom. Because the affected cells burst when infected with Plasmodium, possessing exactly one defective gene for this protein confers resistance to malaria, and is known as sickle-cell trait. Carbon monoxide inhalation can cause suffocation because this protein's affinity for that compound is higher than its affinity for oxygen. For ten points, name this protein found in red blood cells.
