[1] | N/A | Majka et al. published a study on dimerization of the initiator Protein DnaA of Streptomyces and on its mutants, where they report dissociation constants in the range .
These values agree with Ozbabacan et al. [2] who state that strong protein-protein interactions such as homodimerization have equilibrium dissociation constants and mostly in the nanomolar range. | ||
[3] [4] | N/A | According to Northrup et al. the of protein-protein bond formations occur in the order of . Therefore, this value is used to calculate the dissociation rate for the ScbR homo-dimer formation. Therefore the range of the values is , calculated as per . |
Parameters with uncertainty
When deciding how to describe the uncertainty for this parameter we must take into consideration that the values reported in literature correspond to in vitro testing of different protein-protein interaction and dimerization reactions than ScbR, although they refer to another Streptomyces protein (DnaA). This means that there might be a difference between actual parameter values and the ones reported in literature. These facts influence the quantification of the parameter uncertainty and therefore the shape of the corresponding distributions.
The most plausible parameter value for the is decided to be and the confidence interval . This means that the mode of the PDF is and the range where 95% of the values are found is between and .
In a similar way, the most plausible value for is and the confidence interval 10. This means that the mode of the PDF is and the range where 95% of the values are found is between and .
The probability distributions for the two parameters, adjusted accordingly in order to reflect the above values, are the following:
The location and scale parameters of the distributions are:
