Concordance rates between monozygotic twins vary in different studies, approximately 50%; whereas dizygotic twins was 17%. Some twin studies (Koskenvuo et al; Hoeffer et al) have found rates as low as 11.0%–13.8% among monozygotic twins, and 1.8%–4.1% among dizygotic twins.

The value of n, the Hill coefficient, for hemoglobin is about _________ as great as the value for myoglobin.
ludmilkaskok [199]

The value of n, the Hill coefficient, for hemoglobin is about 2 to 3 times as great as the value for myoglobin.

Hill Equation

The two closely related equations that help to explain the binding of macromolecules to ligands are called the Hill equation. It helps to quantify the interaction between various ligand binding sites.

Hill coefficient

It is used to describe the cooperativity of ligand binding. It can be positive and negative depending on the value of the Hill coefficient. If the value of the Hill coefficient is more than one then it exhibits positively cooperative binding and if it is less than one then it exhibits negatively cooperative binding. Then there is the noncooperative binding where the Hill coefficient value is one. As for the hemoglobin and myoglobin, the values are,

  • Hill coefficient of hemoglobin is 2.7 - 3.
  • Hill coefficient of myoglobin is 1.0.

Thus hemoglobin is positively cooperative and myoglobin exhibits noncooperative binding.

natulia [17]

Cation-exchange chromatography is used when the molecule of interest is positively charged, the stationary phase is negatively charged and positively charged molecules are loaded to be attracted to it. So, the amino acids with negative charge will elute the first. Glutamate, leucin, arginine is the order of elution because of their pI values ~3,  ~6  ~10.
