Adenylate cyclases (ACs) are the membrane-bound glycoproteins that convert ATP to cAMP and pyrophosphate.
When activated by G-protein Gs, adenylate cyclases (ACs), which are membrane-bound glycoproteins, catalyze the synthesis of cAMP from ATP.
Different AC isoforms are widely expressed in various tissues that participate in regulatory systems in response to particular stimuli.
Humans have 9 different AC isoforms, with AC5 and AC6 thought to be particularly important for cardiac activities.
Nitric oxide has an impact on the activity of AC6, hence the protein's nitrosylation may control how it works. However, little is known about the structural variables that affect nitrosylation in ACs and how they relate to G's.
We predict the cysteines that are prone to nitrosylation using this 3D model, and we use virtual ligand screening to find potential new AC6 ligands.
According to our model, the AC-Gs interface's Cys174 in G's and Cys1004 in AC6 (subunit C2) are two potential residues that could experience reversible nitrosylation.

Answer: It is approximately the membrane potential at which the electrochemical gradient for Na+ is zero.
Explanation:
The charge in plasma membrane occurs with diffusion and electric fields.
For example, if there are two solutions, let's assume solution X and Solution Y are separated by a porous barrier (to diffuse in equal proportions).
The fundamental principle of diffusion states that solution from a high concentration diffuses to a lower concentration.
For instance, if the X solution contains 40 sodium ions and 40 chloride ions, the Y solution only has 30 sodium and 30 chloride ions. Due to the diffusion, these two solutions will mix and reach a steady-state.
The like charges repel, and opposite charges attract.
Answer:
The nervous system is comprised of two major subdivisions, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
Explanation:
If you do not have variations to be selected by natural or sexual selection on their superior abilities to survive and reproduce successfully then nothing can be naturally selected against the immediate environment.
I feel like the answer would be A because photosynthesis gives off energy and they don’t produce glucose
