Step 1: Introduction
A three-carbon chemical compound called 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) is involved in the metabolism of red blood cells and the glycolytic pathway. It is essential for controlling how oxygen binds to haemoglobin in red blood cells. 2,3-BPG binds to haemoglobin and aids in its release, increasing the amount of oxygen that is available to cells in tissues.
