9 Determination of Binding Constants Definition of Association and Dissociation Constants: k 1 [P] f ree = conc. of free protein For a binding reaction at equilibrium: P + L PL [L] f ree = conc. of free ligand k -1 [PL] = conc. of PA complex k 1 = rate constant for formation of [PL] k -1 = rate constant for breakdown of [PL] The rate of formation of [PL] is k 1 [P] f ree [L] f ree, where k 1 is a second order rate constant with units of l/mol -1 s -1. The rate of breakdown of [PL] is k -1 [PL], where k -1 is a first order rate constant with units of s -1. At equilibrium, the rate of formation of [PL] equals the rate of its breakdown, so k 1 [P] f ree [L] f ree = k -1 [PL]. Also recall that: K D = k -1 / k 1 = [P] f ree [L] f ree / [PL] = 1 / K A K D is given in units of concentration (e.g., mol/l) Or, in terms of fraction of protein binding sites occupied (y), which is often convenient to measure: y = [PL] / ([P] f ree + [PL]) = [L] f ree / ([L] f ree + K D ) Use [PL] = K A [P] f ree [L] f ree Divide through by K A Replace K A by 1 / K D

10 Determination of Binding Constants Special cases: y = [L] f ree / ([L] f ree + K D ) For [L] f ree = : y = For [L] f ree : y = 1 For [L] f ree = K D : y =.5 nothing bound full occupancy half occupancy Two possible ways to determine binding constants: 1. Measure bound and free ligand at equilibrium as a function of concentration 2. Measure association and dissociation rate constants and use these to calculate binding constants

11 Methods to determine Binding Constants Signal Information Advantage Disadvantage Spectroscopy change of absorption K D ( M) in solution probe needed (Fluorescence, UV/Vis, CD) or emission of light Microcalorimetry heat of binding K D ( M) no labels, large sample H, S, n in solution direct access to H direct access to n Surface Plasmon Resonance change of refractive K D ( M) small sample, surface coupled, index due to mass k 1, k -1 automated ligand must have large mass Stopped-Flow coupled to spectroscopy K D ( M) fast probe needed k 1, k -1 Analytical Ultracentrifugation absorption at different K D ( M) good for slow radii for different times homomeric interactions Nuclear Magnetic Resonance shift of magnetic K D ( M) in solution, slow, resonance frequency structural large sample, information expensive Binding Assays various, e.g. SDS-PAGE, K D ( M) can be most sometimes densitometry, radio- sensitive inaccurate activity

14 Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) Review of Free Energies, Enthalpies, and Entropies of Binding G bind = RT lnk D (where R= 1.98 cal mol 1 K -1 ; T= K, and RT =.62 kcal/mol at 37 C) Note log relationship between free energy and binding constants Recall that G bind is relative to standard conditions (typically 1M reactants, 25 C, standard salt) A convenient rule of thumb is that a 1-fold change in binding constant corresponds to 1.4 kcal / mol. G A1-A2 = RT ln(k D A1 / K D A2)= (.62 kcal / mol)ln(1-8 M / 1-7 M) = -1.4 kcal / mol How many kcal / mol change in free energy do you need to change K D 1-fold?

G must be large and negative H must be large and negative (gain new bonds) S must be large and positive (gain more entropy)
