Competitive Binding

Cards (9)

  • GADDUM EQUATION = an extension of the Hill-Langmuir equation that describes competitive binding
  • Ki = the equilibrium dissociation constant for a competing ligand. It's a measure of affinity and is equivalent to KD
  • pKi=pKi =log(Ki) -log(Ki)
  • pKD=pKD =log(KD) -log(KD)
  • COMPETITIVE BINDING EQUATION = used to plot competition binding to 50% of control
  • IC50 = the concentration of...
  • CHENG-PRUSOFF equation = an equation used to convert IC50 to Ki
  • GADDUM EQUATION
  • CHENG-PRUSOFF EQUATION
