Consider a uniport system where a carrier protein transports an uncharged substance A across a cell membrane. Suppose that at a certain ratio of [A]inside to [A]outside, the AG for the transport of substance A from outside the cell to the inside, Aoutside → Ainside, is -12.1 kJ/mol at 25°C. What is the ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside? [A]inside [A]outside 321.1 Incorrect Choose the true statement about the transport of A under the conditions described. Because AG is negative, the ratio [A]inside/[A]outside must be greater than one. Increasing [A]outside will cause AG for movement of Aoutside to Ainside to become a smaller negative number. Decreasing the concentration of the uniport protein in the membrane will cause AG to become a larger negative number. Movement of Aoutside to Ainside will be spontaneous.

A one-to-one protein (P)-ligand (L) complexation (P + L PL) has a dissociation equilibrium constant (Kd) value of 100 nM at 25°C, and the Kd remains the same at 37°C. 1) What is AS of binding at 25°C? Assume ACp of the binding is 0 over the temperature range. AS = 1.34E2 kJ/(mol*K) (note the unit!!)

PL at equilibrium = 8.1E-1 uM (note the unit!!) (sig. fig =2)
The acidity of the stomach is maintained by the H*/K* ATPase in parietal cells of the gastric mucosa. These cells have an internal pH = 7.4. The H*/K* ATPase transports H* across the cellular membrane into the stomach where pH = 0.8. (a) Given a membrane potential of 65 mV (inside negative), calculate AG in kJ/mol for the transport of H* into the stomach at 37 °C. Show your work. (b) The hydrolysis of ATP is directly coupled to H* transport and the stoichiometry of the transport reaction is such that 1 mol of ATP is hydrolyzed for every 1 mol of H* transported into the stomach. ATP is hydrolyzed by the ATPase on the inside of the cell. Under the conditions given in part (a) and assuming the steady-state concentrations of ATP, ADP and P₁ given below, is the transport of H* in to the stomach thermodynamically favorable at 37 °C? Show the calculation that supports your answer. Steady-state intracellular concentrations: ATP = 4.2 mM ADP = 360 μM Pi = 5.4 mM For ATP hydrolysis at 37 °C: ATP…
