... in concert, their effect is much greater than the sum of the individualparts. Indeed, the effect of the double-alanine substitu-tion of basic residues within the Jun-Fos heterodimer on the ... substitu-tion of all other residues reduces the binding of the Jun-Jun homodimer to DNA by more than one order of magnitude, even though alanine substitution of these residues alone in the context of ... various constructs of the Jun-Fos heterodimer were obtained from the fit of a one-site model, based on the binding of a ligand toa macromolecule using the law of mass action, to the corresponding...
