Studies on the Bohr Effect of Sheep Hemoglobin

A simple method is described for the measurement of pH changes in hemoglobin solutions on oxygenation and reduction. Data are presented establishing the absence of a Bohr effect in p-chloromercuribenzoate [PCMB] treated hemoglobin. The influence of a number of sulfhydryl inhibitors on the Bohr effec...

description A simple method is described for the measurement of pH changes in hemoglobin solutions on oxygenation and reduction. Data are presented establishing the absence of a Bohr effect in p-chloromercuribenzoate [PCMB] treated hemoglobin. The influence of a number of sulfhydryl inhibitors on the Bohr effect of a hemoglobin solution is reported and an interpretation based on steric factors in the protein is proposed.
