Synopsis
A binding isotherm for ligands on multidimensional lattices has been calculated in the Bethe approximation. In this lattice model, a single bound ligand is assumed to occupy a contiguous sequence of lattice sites in all possible configurations; interactions between neighboring bound ligands are included. This lattice model is equivalent to one used for treating polymer solutions; a configurational entropy of athermal polymer solutions has been utilized directly to represent bound ligands. Binding isotherms are examined for their dependences on lattice coordination numbers and the number of sites occupied by a single bound ligand. Critical conditions for phase transitions in single-ligand-species systems are also presented. The binding isotherm reported here can be applied to a wide variety of binding phenomena; it is exact for one-dimensional cases, i.e., it reduces to the binding isotherm of McGhee and von Hippel [(1974) J. Mot. Bzol. 86, 469-4891 and should serve as a good approximation for higher-dimensional binding phenomena.

A fast Monte Carlo integration algorithm with varying time step is described for cooperative binding of ligands of arbitrary length to a one-dimensional lattice. This algorithm is particularly suitable for strongly cooperative or anticooperative systems, i.e., when the time scales for different kine
We present the general secular equation for three-state lattice models for the cooperative binding of large ligands to a one-dimensional lattice. In addition, a closed-form expression for the isotherm is also obtained, that can be used with all values of the cooperativity parameter w ( 0 < w < 03) t
