Abstract

It has been generally assumed that mammals have blood with a greater temperature sensitivity than ectothermic organisms. Recent results have shown that in some species of mammals, Hb displays a value of overall oxygenation enthalpy (ΔH) much less exothermic than that observed for most mammalian hemoglobins, including human adult Hb. In this respect, a very interesting case is represented by porcine blood which shows a modest effect of temperature, the temperature coefficient of its oxygen-dissociation curve being significantly lower than that of human blood. Here we report a detailed functional characterization of pig Hb, which, interpreted on the basis of the amino acid sequence of the α and β chains of the molecule, sheds some light on the molecular basis of the phenomenon.

8. Hemoglobins from Wistar Rat: Crystallization of Components and lntraerythrocytic Crystals.

Author

Brunori, Maurizio, Condó, Saverio G., Bellelli, Andrea, and Giardina, Bruno

Subjects
*CRYSTALLIZATION, *HEMOGLOBINS, *RATS, *ERYTHROCYTES
Abstract

The crystallization properties of the hemolysate and of the purified hemoglobin components from Wistar rat have been studied under various experimental conditions. The results suggest the existence of hemoglobins in the crystalline state even within the red blood cells. However the functional properties of rat erythrocytes are identical to those of whole hemotysate in solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

9. Comparative studies of hemoglobins from newts (Triturus cristatus, triturus vulgaris, triturus alpestris): A kinetic approach

Author

Condó, Saverio G., Giardina, Bruno, Bellelli, Andrea, Lunadei, Mario, Ferracin, Alessandro, and Brunori, Maurizio

Abstract

1.1. The functional properties of three different species of newts i.e. Triturus cristatus carnifex, Triturus vulgaris meridionalisand Triturus alpestris apuanushave been studied by flash photolysis.2.2. In spite of the very different habitats the hemoglobins of the adult form of the three species do not show significant differences in functional behaviour.3.3. However the neotenic form of Triturus alpestris apuanusis characterized by the presence of a higher multiplicity of hemoglobin components as compared to that of the adult form.4.4. The experiments show that the new hemoglobin(s) is characterized by a more marked pH dependence and by a much higher rate constant for CO combination.5.5. This finding may be relevant to the compulsory aquatic life of the neotenic form of this amphibian.
