Distinctions between the two-state and sequential models for cooperative ligand binding.

RESUMO

The two-state and sequential models for positive cooperativity in ligand binding can produce significantly different theoretical binding curves when presented in a Scatchard plot. The conditions that produce the greatest differences have been examined. The theoretical differences have been used to select the two-state model as the best model for describing the binding of acetylcholine to acetylcholine receptors that have been solubilized by Triton X-100 and sodium cholate.
