Which of the following statements accurately describe receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs)? There is more than one correct answer. Select all the true statements. A) A ligand binds to the extracellular domain. B) RTKs are usually (but not always) monomeric in the absence of ligand. C) Ligand binding is required for autophosphorylation (cross-phosphorylation). D) The intracellular domain has phosphatase domains. E) The alpha subunit contains seven alpha helices that span the membrane. F) The structure includes a transmembrane helix.
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...
1. Why is the Electron Affinity of chlorine more favorable (that is, more negative) than fluorine? This is surprising as fluorine is the most electronegative element. 2. The second Electron Affinity for oxygen is positive and very large, meaning it is unfavorable. But the most common ion of oxygen is oxide, O2−. How can you explain this, aside from using the octet rule? 3. Ammonia (NH3) has a greater dipole moment than nitrogen trifluoride (NF3). This means that ammonia is...
