Abstract:
:Individual-site isotherms for the binding of bacteriophage lambda repressor to the left and right lambda operators have been determined [D. F. Senear, M. Brenowitz, M. A. Shea, and G. K. Ackers (1986) Biochemistry, Vol. 25, pp. 7344-7354.] using the DNAse protection technique [footprinting; D. J. Galas and A. Schmitz (1978) Nucleic Acids Research, Vol. 5, pp. 3157-3170]. These extensive data have been interpreted with a quantitative model that emphasized cooperative interactions between adjacently bound ligands [occupied <==> occupied interactions; G. K. Ackers, A. D. Johnson, and M. A. Shea (1982) Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, USA, Vol. 79, pp. 1129-1133]. Overlooked in this model are the effects of cooperative interactions between a site containing a bound ligand and its neighboring unoccupied site (occupied <==> unoccupied interactions). This paper reinterprets the existing data with a model that considers occupied <==> unoccupied as well as occupied <==> occupied interactions. The results yield parameters that differ substantially from those already reported. A discussion on the advisability of ignoring occupied <==> unoccupied interactions is included.
