| Bioactivity | 2,3-Diphosphoglyceric acid (2,3-DPG) is an intermediate of the glycolytic pathway. 2,3-Diphosphoglyceric acid stabilizes the deoxygenated form of hemoglobin by allosteric binding and facilitates oxygen release at tissue sites. 2,3-Diphosphoglyceric acid binds to hemoglobin and decrease its affinity for oxygen[1][2]. |
