Abstract:
:Diffusion studies by photon correlation of scattered laser light confirm the dissociation of the tetrameric form of human carboxyhemoglobin to dimers above pH 10 and provide new estimates of the subunit dissociation equilibrium constants in this pH range. Electrophoretic light-scattering experiments under the same conditions reveal that the electrophoretic mobilities of tetramers and dimers are indistinguishable to within instrumental resolution (ca. 7% in these experiments). The data imply an increase of the electrical charge on the dimer of at least 2.8 to 4.4 net negative charges upon dissociation. Mechanisms for the accumulation of negative charge by the dimer upon dissociation of the tetramer are proposed.
