Quantifying intramolecular binding in multivalent interactions: a structure-based synergistic study on Grb2-Sos1 complex.

Numerous signaling proteins use multivalent binding to increase the specificity and affinity of their interactions within the cell. Enhancement arises because the effective binding constant for multivalent binding is larger than the binding constants for each individual interaction. We seek to gain...
