Unbounded

Many different manipulations of these equations have been used to obtain solutions. As discussed by King (1971), many of the older approaches work in terms of V/L, which has the disadvantage of being unbounded and which, in the classical implementation, leads to poorly convergent iterative calculations. A preferable arrangement of this equation system for solution is based on the ratio V/F, which must lie between 0 and 1. If we substitute in Equation (7-1) for L from Equation (7-2) and for y from Equation (7-4), and then divide by F, we obtain... 

Fig. 2. Conformational free energy of closed, intermediate and open protein kinase conformations. cAPK indicates the unbound form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, cAPKiATP the binary complex of cAPK with ATP, cAPKiPKP the binary complex of cAPK with the peptide inhibitor PKI(5-24), and cAPK PKI ATP the ternary complex of cAPK with ATP and PKI(5-24). Shown are averaged values for the three crystal structures lATP.pdb, ICDKA.pdb, and ICDKB.pdb. All values have been normalized with respect to the free energy of the closed conformations.

Both the AFM rupture experiments as well as our simulation studies focussed on the streptavidin-biotin complex as a model system for specific ligand binding. Streptavidin is a particularly well-studied protein and binds its ligand biotin with high affinity and specificity [51]. Whereas previous experiments (see references in Ref. [49]) and simulation studies [52] referred only to bound/unbound states and the associated kinetics, the recent AFM...

At any pH a mass balance requires that the total concentration of unbound EDTA equal the combined concentrations of each of its forms. 

Fig. 1. Southern blot analysis of DNA showing (a) step 1, an agarose gel containing separated restriction fragments of DNA, denoted by (—), which is immersed in NaOH to denature the double-stranded stmcture of DNA, and then transferred by capillary flow to a nitrocellulose filter. In step 2, the bound DNA is allowed to hybridize to a labeled nucleic acid probe, and the unbound probe is washed off In step 3, the filter is placed into contact with x-ray film resulting in (b) bands of exposure on the film which are detected after development and correspond to regions where the restriction fragment is...

The absorption of sulfonylureas from the upper gastrointestinal tract is faidy rapid and complete. The agents are transported in the blood as protein-bound complexes. As they are released from protein-binding sites, the free (unbound) form becomes available for diffusion into tissues and to sites of action. Specific receptors are present on pancreatic islet P-ceU surfaces which bind sulfonylureas with high affinity. Binding of sulfonylureas to these receptors appears to be coupled to an ATP-sensitive channel to stimulate insulin secretion. These agents may also potentiate insulin-stimulated glucose transport in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle.

Both nicotinic acid and nicotinamide have been assayed by chemical and biological methods. Owing to the fact that niacin is found in many different forms in nature, it is important to indicate the specific analyte in question. For example, if biological assay procedures are used, it is necessary to indicate whether the analysis is to determine the quantity of nicotinic acid or if niacin activity is the desired result of the analysis. If nicotinic acid is desired, then a method specific for nicotinic acid should be used. If quantitation of niacin activity is the desired outcome, then all compounds (bound and unbound) which behave like niacin will assay biologically for this substance (1).

The WC leaving the furnace is light gray with a bluish tinge. It is generally caked and must be broken up, milled, and screened before use. It should contain about 6.1—6.25 wt % total C, of which 0.03—0.15 wt % is in the free, unbound state. The theoretical C-content is 6.13 wt %. Annual world production of tungsten monocarbide is 15,000—18,000 metric tons. 

Hafnium carbide can be prepared industrially from hydrided hafnium sponge at 1500—1700°C or from Hf02 at 2000—2200°C by carburization in vacuum in the presence of hydrogen. The resulting carbide contains almost the theoretical quantity of carbon, 6.30 wt % C, of which a maximum of 0.1 wt % is unbound. 

Free moisture content is the Hquid content that is removable at a specific temperature and humidity. Eree moisture may include bound and unbound moisture, and is equal to the total average moisture content minus the equiHbrium moisture content for the specific drying conditions. 

Unbound moisture ia a hygroscopic material is moisture that exerts the same vapor pressure as the pure Hquid at the same temperature. Uabouad moisture behaves as if the material were aot preseat. AH moisture ia a nonhygroscopic material is uabouad.
