  1. The probability that the brother is a carrier is 1/2)

  2. If the brother has a child with a healthy unrelated partner the probability that the child will be affected is 1 in 150.

  3. If the brother has a child with his first cousin the probability that the child will be affected is 1 in 12)

  4. If the affected sister has a child with her first cousin the probability that the child will be affected is 1 in 4)

Allosteric regulation of enzyme multisubunit or multiactive site shows cooperativity with the sigmoidal graph between substerate conc. v/s Activity,


a) Cell contain NADH, FADH2 and ATP, that inhibits the allosteric enzyme activity by lowering the affinity with its substate, graph shifts towards B from control

 b) A- shows low ATP, the Km for fructose 6-phosphate is relatively low, the affinity of the enzyme with its substate is relatively high

 c) Haemoglobin, Phosphofructokinase, Phosphate dehydrogenase complex, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, these all enzymes shows characteristics of sigmoidal graph

 d) When ATP is high, Km for fructose 6-phosphate is greatly increased- this activity shown by B in the graph

 e) fructose 2,6-bisphosphate binds to its allosteric site on PFK-1, it increases the enzyme’s affinity for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate and reduces its affinity for the allosteric inhibitors ATP and citrate- shown in graph by A

 Which of the following  combination of the enzyme activity with its substate correctly shown;
