Abstract excerpt
The rate of protein association places an upper limit on the response time due to protein interactions, which, under certain circumstances, can be diffusion-controlled. Simulations of model proteins show that diffusion-limited association rates are approximately 10(6)-10(7) M-1 s-1 in the absence of long-range forces (Northrup, S. H., and H. P. Erickson. 1992. Kinetics of protein-protein association explained by...
