A protein binds a drug (ligand A) with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1 nM (nanomolar, 10-9 M). The same protein binds a modified drug (ligand B) with a Kd of 1 pM (picomolar, 10-12 M). Which drug binds more tightly? What is the ΔG value for dissociation of each of these two interactions? Show your work and provide your answer in units of kcal/mol. Assume the measurement is at 25 °C.

a)Imagine that a cell has 1000 surface receptors for a particular ligand. Imagine also that 15% of the above receptors need to bind the ligand to achieve maximal response. What concentration of ligand is required to achieve this maximal response? Report your answer in terms of picomolar (pM) concentration to the nearest tenth of a unit. Assume the Kd for the ligand is 1.0 x 10-10 M. b)Consider the information in the previous problem, but this time imagine that the...

At a certain temperature, the concentration of I2 in its saturated aqueous solution is 1.300×10−3 M, and the equilibrium achieved when I2 distributes itself between H2O and CCl4 is I2(aq)⇌I2(CCl4),K=85.5.A 13.0-mL sample of saturated I2(aq) is shaken with 13.0 mL of CCl4. After equilibrium is established, the two liquid layers are separated. How many milligrams of I2 will be in the aqueous layer? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
