Estimate the slope(s) of the Hill plot, for the portion(s) that is (are) clearly linear. This numberis the Hill coefficient, symbolized n or ní. For instance, for the maternal hemoglobin plot above,the Hill coefficients are 1.0 and 2.8 (the steeper part in the middle). If the Hill coefficient = 1.0,then there is no cooperativity between enzyme subunits. If the coefficient is greater than 1.0,there is positive cooperativity. If the coefficient is less than 1.0, there is negative cooperativity.Comment on the type and degree of cooperativity shown in the fetal hemoglobin, compared tothe maternal hemoglobin.

The table contains data about how different ASFV mutants affect enzyme activity-- for example the D29A mutant, where the D at position 29 was mutated to an A. Select three mutants at random, and for each mutant explain how that mutation could affect intermolecular force interactions (an example: hydrogen bonding could be disrupted by this mutation because…

At equilibrium, the concentrations of the reaction components are Glucose 1-phosphate (4.5 X 10-3 M) and Glucose 6-phosphate (9.6 X 10-2 M).
The Nutrition Facts label on most food products shows % daily values based on a food energy requirement of 8,360 kJ (2,000 kcal) at normal resting state. a) Assuming that the efficiency of converting food energy to ATP is 50%, calculate the mass of ATP (in kg) that is harvested daily by the human body from 8,360 kJ of food energy. A total of 30.5 kJ of energy is needed to synthesize one mole of ATP under standard conditions. The molar mass of ATP is 505 g/mol. b) For an average 68-kg (150 lbs.) human adult, calculate the % mass of extracted ATP (from your answer in 2a) relative to body weight.
The transport of aspirin (pKa = 3.5, structure shown here) from the digestive tract to the circulation occurs by nonmediated absorption into cells lining the stomach (where pH = 0.8) and the small intestine (where pH 6.0). Do you expect absorption to be faster in the stomach or in the small intestine?
Consider a protein with two surface-exposed histidine residues: HisA is a “typical” histidine residue with a pKa = 6.2 HisB is involved in a stabilizing interaction (His-NH+ ..... -O2C-Glu) with a neighboring glutamic acid residue. For HisB, the Gibbs free energy of deprotonation at pH = 7.0 and T = 293K is ΔG'o = +15 kj mol-1. If you had a solution, at pH = 7.0 and T = 293K, containing this protein: a) What fraction of HisA residues are protonated? b) What fraction of HisB residues are protonated? c) What is the pKa of HisB?
