A perspective into ligand-receptor affinities using complex numbers.
The binding of ligands by a receptor can be expressed in an equation derived by a thermodynamic stoichiometric approach in which the stoichiometric equilibrium constants are all positive and real. An alternative binding equation can be derived algebraically in which the equilibrium constants can have values that are complex numbers. Some consequences of this situation are explored, and numerica...
متن کاملDifferential Ligand Binding Affinities of Human Estrogen Receptor-α Isoforms
Rapid non-genomic effects of 17β-estradiol are elicited by the activation of different estrogen receptor-α isoforms. Presence of surface binding sites for estrogen have been identified in cells transfected with full-length estrogen receptor-α66 (ER66) and the truncated isoforms, estrogen receptor-α46 (ER46) and estrogen receptor-α36 (ER36). However, the binding affinities of the membrane estrog...
متن کاملSafety of oxybenzone: putting numbers into perspective.
O xybenzone, an organic UV-B and short-wave UV-A filter, has been available for over 40 years; it is widely used in sunscreens and other consumer products in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has estimated the prevalence of oxybenzone exposure in the general US population to be 96.8%. In the past few years, oxybenzone has received increasing attention as a potent...
متن کاملEfficient oxidation of sulfides using a molybdenum(VI)–dioxo complex containing an benzimidazole ligand
For the first time, dioxomolybdenum(VI) complex with the general formula [MoO2L2] containing a N-O bidentate ligands (HL=2-(o-aminophenyl)- benzimidazole) has been used for the oxidation of sulfides. Elemental analyses (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen), FT-IR and Uv-Visble spectra and 1HNMR analysis agree well with the proposed stoicheiometry of the complex [MoO...
