  1. An antibody can bind to a coronavirus receptor with a koffand kon rate of 10-5s-1and 104M-1s-1, respectively. If there are 10 µM total receptors and 50 µM free antibody, what concentration of coronavirus receptors are bound with antibody? What percent of receptors are bound?
  2. The coronavirus mutated its receptor which changes the dissociation rate koff to 1 s-1for the antibody. How does this change the percent of receptors bounds?
  3. How long does the antibody stay bound to the wildtype receptors vs. the mutated receptors?

In order to study the EGF receptor you engineer a protein that can bind ligand but lacks the intracellular domain of the protein. If you overexpress this protein in the cell it acts like a dominant negative. Explain how it might bind with normal receptors and inhibit downstream signaling. Rubric: Explain how the dominant negative interacts with cellular components (.5) and how this interaction will overall inhibit EGFR signaling (.5).

To test how long coronavirus can stay viable (infectious) on plastic surfaces, 10 sample plastic surfaces were tested for the duration that the virus could be viable on them. The sample mean and standard deviation were found to be 70 and 6 hours, respectively. We can assume that the population has a normal distribution. (Disclaimer: These numbers are not based on actual research.) a) Based on this test, what is the 99% confidence interval for the mean viability duration of...
