Correlation of structure-dynamic properties and oxygen affinity lo haemoglobin's electrophoretic fractions of dolphiri-afaline Tursiops truncatus

S. V. Konoshenko, T. V. Osliak

Intramolecular mobility of all fractions of haemoglobin in dolphin-afaline Tursiops truncatus has been studied by method of NMR-ralaxation. It has been determined that haemoglobin's fractions with more intramolecular mobility have more volume of hydrophobic cavities and smaller affinity to oxygen.
