proteiinisidonnaiset
Proteiinisidonnaiset, known in English as protein binding, refers to the interaction between a protein and another molecule, which can be a small molecule, a nucleic acid, a carbohydrate, a lipid, or another protein. This binding is fundamental to virtually all biological processes, enabling proteins to perform their diverse functions within cells and organisms.
The specificity of protein binding is determined by the three-dimensional structure of the protein, particularly its
Protein binding is crucial for a wide array of cellular activities. For example, enzymes bind to their
The strength and duration of protein binding are critical. A high affinity binding interaction means the protein
