Effect of DPG and Temperature on Oxygen Dissociation Curve -

  • 2,3-diphosphoglycerate is formed during glycolysis. 
  • It enters the plasma when produced in excess and drifts into the RBCs to bind to deoxyhemoglobin.
  • Hence, the formation of oxyhemoglobin is not allowed and the curve shifts to the right.
  • The concentration of BPG increases during the exercise.
  • Tissues have a higher metabolic rate and therefore produce more thermal energy as a water by-product.
  • This results in an increase in the temperature of the surrounding blood plasma.
  • At high temperature, the Hb will be less likely to stick to the oxygen and releases it into the tissues. `    
  • The curve shifts to the right when the temperature increases.
