| Research Abstract |
1) The conformational changes of various parts ot a deoxyhemoglobin molecule were investigated when its oxygen affinity was altered by use of abnormal hemoglobins and chemically modified ones. It was found that the conformational changes around heme and those of the globin moiety did not take place in concerted manner on the contrary to the expectation of the two state allosteric model. 2) Four metalloprotoporphyrins were found to medel the deoxyheme. Among them Ni-protoporphyrinIX has been studied most extensively. Judging from the oxygen equilibrium properties of Ni-Fe hybrid hemoglobins. Ni-protoporphyrinIX behaves just like "frozen" deoxyheme not only in unmodified hemoglobins but also in modified ones. 3) The model for the intermediate state of the oxygenation of hemoglobin prepared by use of Ni-protoporphyrin showed a conformational state, which could not be accomodated in the framework of the two state allosteric model. 4) The interaction between the electronic state of iron and the globin moiety was investigated by substituteing iron serries transition metal ions for iron. The conformational state of the hemoglobin having the metalloprotoporphyrin changed according to the position of the element in the periodical table. No complete explanation of the result has been given. 5) Data were obtained to suggest the importance of the 1 1 interaction. 6) 89 Histidine was shown to contribute about 25% of the alkaline Bohr effect. 7) It became possible to prepare a hemoglobin having any primary structure by gene manipulation of E. coli. 8) An equipment to measure a resonance Raman spectra excited by ultraviolet laser beams was constructed. 9) The dynamic three dimentional structure of myoglobin was analyed by the computer calculation of the conformational energy function.
