Question
Chapter 9, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction
To propose:
Suppose you have just discovered an unusual strain of bacteria that transports rhamnose across its plasma membrane. Suggests experiments that would test whether it was linked to any of these other transport systems.
Introduction:
If the rhamnose pump is associated to some different system, constraining the other system must constrain a rhamnose pump. The finest method to identify what system is associated to the rhamnose pump is to constrain other systems as well as perceive the consequence upon the rhamnose pump.

Fructose is present outside a Cell at 1 M concentration. An active transport system in the plasma membrane transports fructose into this cell, using the free energy of ATP hydrolysis to drive fructose uptake. What is the highest intracellular concentration of fructose that this transported system can generate? Assume that one fructose is transported per ATP hydrolyzed; that ATP is hydrolyzed on the intracellular surface of the membrane; and that the concentrations of ATP, ADP, and Pi are 3mM, 1mM, and 0.5mM, respectively. T = 298 K. [Hint: Refer to Chapter 3 to recall the effects of concentration on free energy of ATP hydrolysis.)arrow_forward
