5Which of the following statements about protein-ligand binding is correct?
- AThe Ka is equal to the concentration of ligand when all of the binding sites are occupied.
- BThe Ka is independent of such conditions as salt concentration and pH.
- CThe larger the Ka (association constant), the weaker the affinity.
- DThe larger the Ka, the faster is the binding.
- EThe larger the Ka, the smaller the Kd (dissociation constant).
6Myoglobin and the subunits of hemoglobin have:
