The specificity of a ligand binding site on a protein is based on the presence of hydrating water molecules the absence of competing ligands the amino acid residues lining the binding site the opposite chirality of the binding ligand TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The Hill coefficient (nH) for myoglobin and hemoglobin are respectively 4.5 and 1.2 2.8 and 1.0 1.0 and 2.8 1.2 and 4.5 TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A protein that binds two ligands in a non-cooperative manner will show a hyperbolic binding curve a linear Scatchard Plot both (b) and (c) a sigmodial binding curve TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A protein that shows infinite cooperative for binding of n ligands will show a Hill coefficient (nH) of 0.0 only be found in either the unliganded form or the fully liganded form show a Hill coefficient (nH) of n both (b) and (c) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
When protein binds two ligands in a non-cooperative manner, then the x-intercept of the Scatchard Plot is not defined 1 2 None of these TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The conformational changes from the T to the R state is initiated by movement of the proximal histidine towards the heme movement of the F-helix, which contains the proximal His binding of oxygen to the heme reorganization of protein-protein contacts between the individual subunits TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) cannot bind to the oxygenated R state of hemoglobin because its binding pocket becomes too small to accommodate BPG it is displaced from the heme by movement of the proximal histidine it is displaced from the heme by oxygen BPG binds to the R state with the same affinity as the T state TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
An allosteric activator both (a) and (c) decreases the binding affinity stabilizes the R state of the protein increases the binding affinity TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
O2 binding to hemoglobin results in 100-fold lower affinity for the last O2 bound than for the first both (a) and (b) 100-fold higher affinity for the last O2 bound than for the first extensive protein conformational change TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Small molecules affect hemoglobin (Hb) by increasing [H+] increasing [H+] and decreasing Hb affinity for O2 decreasing Hb affinity for O2 increasing Hb affinity for O2 TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
