Binding kinetics of carbon monoxide to hemoglobin using Adair's four site model. Two-way binding for carbon monoxide and no interactions between binding sites.

Description

  Model describes the binding kinetics of carbon monoxide to hemoglobin. 
  It uses a simplified model where the binding kinetics of the four sites 
  on the hemoglobin molecule are independent of each other.
  The Hill equation for hemoglobin saturation is used for comparison. The Hill 
  Equation assumes instantaneous equilibrative binding of carbon monoxide to Hb. 
  A model that takes into account cooperative binding will give a better 
  description of the data. See HbO2 cooperative model for ways to modify 
  this model described here (NSR Physiome model: HbCoop).
  These models are applied to data from Antonini and Brunori's "Hemoglobin 
  and Myoglobin In Their Reactions With Ligands", 1971, Fig 10.16, p261

Equations

The equations for this model may be viewed by running the JSim model applet and clicking on the Source tab at the bottom left of JSim's Run Time graphical user interface. The equations are written in JSim's Mathematical Modeling Language (MML). See the Introduction to MML and the MML Reference Manual.
