Abstract：
:Ligand-dependent site-site (or subunit-subunit) interactions provide the basis for explaining cooperativity in chemical reactions. Even in the simplest possible nonaggregating system, interpretation of the interactions in terms of structural details requires an explicit assumption (or model) for the binding of the ligand to the sites when there are no interactions. This paper develops in detail the processes by which aggregation will yield ligand-dependent cooperativity. Two conceptually distinct free energy differences may contribute to cooperativity in an aggregation reaction. One is the free energy difference in ligand binding between the monomer and the aggregate. The other is derived from ligand-dependent interactions between the sites of the aggregate. In this analysis an explicit distinction is made between the experimentally accessible constants and those derived from assumed models. Experimental measurements of an aggregation cycle in which all of the species in equilibrium are defined do not allow for an evaluation of the energies of interaction without some model (or assumption). In the analysis presented, an explicit assumption is employed relating the constant for binding of the ligand to the isolated monomer and the constant for the binding of the ligand to aggregate under conditions where there are no ligand-dependent interactions.

BIOCHEMISTRY文献大全abstract：:HPr is a protein of the bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase transport system (PTS). In Gram-positive bacteria, HPr can be phosphorylated on Ser(46) by HPr(Ser) kinase/phosphorylase (HPrK/P) and on His(15) by enzyme I (EI) of the PTS. In vitro studies have shown that phosphorylation on one residue gr...
