Chapter 10.5, Problem 21CC
Summary Introduction

To determine: The type of ion and its movement direction to facilitate depolarization when the ion channels in the stereocilia open up.

Introduction: Stereocilia are the organelles, present in the inner ear that respond to the mechanical stimuli, for example, fluid motion, hearing, and balance. They share the common features with intestinal microvilli and are 10-50 micrometers in length.

Draw a rough sketch of the control and experimental data using a normal dose/response curve plot: i.e. % of total bound ligand vs. concentration. Indicate Kd and Bmax on this sketch. You don’t need to use exact numbers, but the relative proportions should be close
Name something that could be happening to glutamate transporters that could have this effect on glutamate transport (i.e. the difference in glutamate transporters between control and experimental conditions). (Bonus: if you can also guess what the experimental condition is).
a. For the control condition, calculate Kd. Include units and show your work. b. For the control condition, calculate Bmax. Include units and show your work.  c. For the experimental condition, calculate Kd. Include units and show your work. For the experimental condition, calculate Bmax. Include units and show your work.
