Figure 2

Values of PO 2 and Hill's cooperativity coefficient at half oxygen saturation (P 50 and n 50 ) for the two major isohemoglobin components of (A) eastern and (B) coast moles at 37°C, and their pH dependence in the absence and presence of added Cl- (0.1 M) and 2,3-DPG (DPG/Hb 4 ratio > 50). Upper right insets: diagrams of isoelectric focusing column at the end of focusing illustrating the relative abundance of the individual hemoglobin components and their isoelectric points at 5°C.
