The ability of this molecule to bind to its most common substrate decreases with pH levels according to the Bohr effect.
This molecule's activity is regulated by 2, 3 bisphosphoglycerate levels. Plasmepsins are protein produced by Plasmodium that degrade this molecule. The ability of this molecule to bind to its most common substrate decreases with pH levels according to the Bohr effect. A certain genetic disorder is caused by the replacement of glutamic acid with valine in this protein. The alpha form of this protein was translocated onto chromosome 16, and its beta forms are located on chromosome 11. Conditions affecting this tetrameric protein include thalassemia and sickle cell anemia. For 10 points, name this protein abundant in red blood cells that carried oxygen.
