QUESTION

Two intracellular molecules X and Y are both normally synthesized at a constant rate of 1000 molecules per second per cell.

Two intracellular molecules X and Y are both normally synthesized at a constant rate of 1000 molecules per second per cell. Molecules X is broken down slowly, each molecule of X survives on average for 100seconds. Molecule Y is broken down 10 times faster, each molecule of Y survives on average for 10 seconds.a/ Calcculate how many molecules X and Y the cell contains at any time many molecules X?b/ If the rates of synthesis of both X and Y are suddenly increased ten fold to 10,000 molecules per second per cell without any change in their degradation rates-how many molecules of X and Y will there be after one second?c/ Which molecule would be preferred for rapid signaling?
