Hemoglobin in its deoxygenated state has a low affinity for oxygen compared to myoglobin. When oxygen is bound to the first subunit of hemoglobin it leads to subtle changes to the quaternary structure of the protein. This in turn makes it easier for a subsequent molecule of oxygen to bind to the next subunit.
