(4 pts) A sample of cells has a total receptor concentration of 25 mM. Ninety percent of the receptors have bound ligand and the concentration of free ligand is 125 PM. What is the Kd for the receptor-ligand interaction?
A sample of cells has a total receptor concentration of 24 μM, and 35% of the receptors are occupied with ligand. The concentration of free ligand is 10 μM. Calculate Kd. { Kd = [R][L]/[R·L]}.
K, = dissociation constant kon R-receptor L ligand off RIIL K, Total Rec:R,-[R]+[RL] = - Kd ILI QUESTIONS You've identified a drug that has the potential to bind and inhibit 5 different histamine receptors found on human mast cells. The drug if ingested orally typically reaches a concentration of 1 x 108 Molar in the blood stream. Given the K of the drug for each of the 5 receptors listed below, calculate the percentage of receptors occupied with a drug...

Question 1 (1 point) Vasoconstriction occurs when epinephrine (adrenaline) binds to the a-adrenergic receptor on vascular smooth muscle cells. One way to treat high blood pressure is to administer competitive inhibitors that bind to this receptor. The Kd for binding of epinephrine to this receptor is ~UM. Based on the measured affinity (Kd) of the following drugs for the a-adrenergic receptor, which might be good candidates for high blood pressure medication? Drug A: Kd = 0.6 M; Drug B: Kd...
