Hemoglobin Function Haldane Effect

The video tutorial explains the Haldane and Bohr effects, focusing on their differences and similarities. The Bohr effect describes how pH affects oxygen binding to hemoglobin, with low pH leading to oxygen release. The Haldane effect, on the other hand, involves the role of CO2 in oxygen release and vice versa. The tutorial delves into the molecular mechanisms, highlighting the role of lysine and arginine residues in CO2 binding. Practical implications, such as oxygen and CO2 exchange in the lungs and tissues, are also discussed.
