Kinetics of oxygen and carbon monoxide binding to liver fluke (Dicrocoelium dendriticum) hemoglobin. An extreme case?
The kinetics of oxygen and carbon monoxide binding to the monomeric liver fluke (Dicrocoelium dendriticum) hemoglobin have been studied. The ligand association rates are approximately 1 X 10(8) and approximately 3 X 10(8) M-1 s-1, respectively, for CO and O2 and show no pH dependence. On the contrary the ligand dissociation rates decrease by lowering the pH below 7, the pK of the transition bei...
متن کاملElectron paramagnetic resonance properties of liver fluke (Dicrocoelium dendriticum) nitrosyl hemoglobin.
The electron paramagnetic resonance properties of the nitric oxide derivative of liver fluke (Dicrocoelium dendriticum) hemoglobin (DD-Hb) have been investigated in the pH range from 4.8 to 7.8. In the neutral and alkaline regions the spectra have a rhombic shape, with gx = 2.09, gy = 1.99 and gz = 2.009, and a triplet hyperfine structure of 2.2 mT, due to the nitrogen of the bound NO molecule,...
متن کاملPredicting risk habitats for the transmission of the small liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum to grazing ruminants.
A multiple regression model was used to analyse if the structure of vegetation and soil patches in grazed units (pastures) can be used as explanatory variables to predict the prevalence of Dicrocoelium dendriticum, a common parasite of cattle and sheep, in grazing cattle stocks on the Baltic island of Öland in southern Sweden. The scale dependency was evaluated by comparing three levels of spat...
متن کاملCalorimetric studies of oxygen and carbon monoxide binding to human hemoglobin. Sequential binding heats for oxygen.
Two high precision techniques, titration microcalorimetry and thin-layer optical binding measurements, have made possible the evaluation of enthalpy changes for the overall oxygenation reactions for human hemoglobin (HbAo). Although the heat of adding three oxygen molecules could not be evaluated due to the indeterminate contribution of this species to the oxygen binding curve of the protein (G...
متن کاملKinetics of oxygen and carbon monoxide binding to synthetic analogs of the myoglobin and hemoglobin active sites.
Kinetics of reversible oxygenation and carbon monoxide complex formation of the simple heme compounds pyrroheme-N-[3-(1-imidazolyl)propyl]amide and pyrroheme-3-(3-pyridyl)propyl ester have been measured in different solvent environments. The oxygen on and off rates and equilibria of these compounds can be made to closely match those of myoglobin, of hemoglobin alpha chains, or of the various st...
