Chapter 5, Problem 5P

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The concentration of ligand when Y is 0.25.

Introduction:

A compound that is bound reversibly to a protein is known as ligand. Binding of a ligand to a protein receptor may alter the protein conformation by distressing the 3-D orientation of the protein. The protein-ligand binding occurs due to the intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonding, ionic bonds, and Van der Waals forces.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The concentration of ligand when Y is 0.6.

Introduction:

A compound that is bound reversibly to a protein is known as ligand. Binding of a ligand to a protein receptor may alter the protein conformation by distressing the 3-D orientation of the protein. The protein-ligand binding occurs due to the intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonding, ionic bonds, and Van der Waals forces.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The concentration of ligand when Y is 0.95.

Introduction:

A compound that is bound reversibly to a protein is known as ligand. Binding of a ligand to a protein receptor may alter the protein conformation by distressing the 3-D orientation of the protein. The protein-ligand binding occurs due to the intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonding, ionic bonds, and Van der Waals forces.
