Artificial cyanmet intermediates of haemoglobin were obtained by mixing cyanmet chains with their oxygenated partners. At pH 7 and 20 °C, the oxygen affinity of the two intermediates is similar and lies between that of haemoglobin and the isolated chains; the value ofnin the Hill equation is equal to 1 for (α+β+ CN) but may be slightly higher (~1.1 to 1.2) for (α+ N+ β). The alkaline Bohr effect is very similar for the two intermediates, but the acid Bohr effect is lacking in (α+β+ CN). In the reaction with carbon monoxide, the intermediates are somewhat faster than haemoglobin but very much slower than the isolated chains. Conformational changes upon ligand binding to haemoglobin are implied by changes in reactivity of theβ93sulphydryl groups and by changes in the rotational strength at 233 nm. Addition of oxygen to (α+ CN+β) is followed by a change in the time-course ofp-mercuribenzoate binding by the reactive sulphydryl groups, whereas oxygenation of the other intermediate does not modify the rate of mercuribenzoate binding. A change in the value of [R′] at 233 nm as a result of oxygen binding is observed, which is about the same in both cases (Δ[R′]233∼- 3%).
