Fig. 6

The effect of HgCl2 on the accumulation of NO in solutions of 36 µM deoxy-Hb(FeII). Sodium nitrite was added at 8.0 mM at zero time. (Top) The accumulation of NO in the presence of 2.0 mM HgCl2 with solutions incubated 8 min before addition of nitrite; (middle) the accumulation of NO under identical conditions but with no HgCl2; (bottom) the uncatalyzed dismutation of nitrite in solutions containing no hemoglobin and 2.0 mM HgCl2. Other conditions are in the legend to Fig. 3 except that 2 mM diethylenetriaminepentaacetate was used as chelator.
