Electron-transport-driven proton pumps display nonhyperbolic kinetics: Simulation of the steady-state kinetics of cytochrome c oxidase.

abstract：:The Ly-6 locus encodes several cell surface proteins whose functions are unknown. Although it is hypothesized that these proteins may be receptors, there is no direct evidence that they bind a ligand. Herein we present evidence that Ly-6A.2, a Ly-6 protein expressed on T lymphocytes, binds a ligand expressed on normal...
