The conformational change from the T to R state of this protein increases its binding affinity for its ligand. BPG, hydrogen ions, and carbon dioxide stabilize the T state, and the Hill equation gives a sigmoidal curve with slope of about 3 to model the binding affinity. This protein contains a porphyrin ring, and a rare misshape of this protein leads to sickle-cell anemia. Positive cooperation is exhibited by the four subunits of, for 10 points,
