| | Cooperative DNA-binding by Bicoid provides a mechanism for threshold-dependent gene activation in the Drosophila embryo |
 | | For example, cooperative binding by Bicoid to its sites in the hb upstream regulatory element is thought to result in a sharp posterior boundary of hb expression that specifies the position of the cephalic furrow. |  | | Cooperative binding by Bicoid monomers appears to be pairwise (Figure 3B). |  | | Cooperative DNA binding also results in concerted loading of Bicoid sites, and thus steepens the transition between the on and off states for gene activation, sharpening the borders of the expression domains as observed for both hunchback and eve stripe 2. |

 | | Binding of LexA repressor to the recA operator in the presence of NaCl ranging from 25 to 400 mM at picomolar DNA concentration showed a broad, apparently noncooperative, binding isotherm. |  | | Binding of LexA repressor in NaF at the same [DNA] yielded binding isotherms with a narrow transition, reflecting an apparently cooperative binding process. |  | | The binding of Escherichia coli LexA repressor to the recA operator was examined as a function of the concentration of NaCl, KCl, NaF, and MgCl |

| | Protein Dimers and Cooperative Binding |
 | | Cooperative binding refers to mechanisms in which the first of several protein binding reactions occurs at a relatively low rate, while subsequent binding reactions occur more rapidly, because the presence of the already bound protein enhances the binding affinity. |  | | A similar power law behavior is obtained in cooperative binding of proteins to a substrate. |  | | The active form of many enzymes, including the DNA binding proteins we propose using, is a bound combination of two copies of the protein. |

| | cooperative binding |
 | | An excellent example of cooperative binding was discovered by Gehrhardt and Pardee in their study of the enzyme Aspartate transcarbamylase. |  | | The term cooperative binding derives from the property that the binding of one molecule of substrate makes it easier for the second molecule of substrate to bind. |  | | A model to explain the sigmoid shape of the curve is called the cooperative binding model. |

| | Structure/Function Relationships of Hemoglobin |
 | | As shown later, when the saturation behavior of hemoglobin (i.e., its oxygen binding capacity) is regulated according to the first equation above, each hemoglobin molecule is capable of transporting about twice as many oxygen molecules under normal physiological conditions than would be possible if the saturation behavior obeyed the second equation. |  | | Hemoglobins primary function is to bind oxygen that diffuses into the bloodstream from the lungs and then transport it to outlying tissues where it is released primarily for aerobic respiration. |  | | Without hemoglobins specialized cooperative ligand binding behavior, nearly twice as much hemoglobin would be needed to transport the same amount of oxygen and this requirement would presumably require twice the blood volume to accommodate a doubling of the number of red blood cells for housing the additional hemoglobin. |

 | | The binding of CTAB to amylopectin was of Langmuir type while the binding to amylose was of the positive cooperative type. |  | | The formation of this complex was studied by determining the binding of the cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to amylose and amylopectin using surface tension measurements and measuring the enthalpy of binding with isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). |  | | The enthalpy of binding CTAB to amylopectin was in the same range as the binding of CTAB to amylose. |

 | | In biochemistry, a macromolecule that exhibits cooperative behavior has ligand binding characteristics that depend on the amount of ligand bound. |  | | Unlike a union, a cooperative may assign different numbers of votes to different members; typically a cooperative is governed proportionally according to each member's level of economic interest in the cooperative. |  | | A housing cooperative is a legal mechanism for ownership of housing where residents either own shares (share capital co-op) or have membership and occupancy rights in a not-for-profit continuing co-operative (non-share capital co-op). |

| | Genome-Wide Analyses of Cooperative Transcriptional Regulations with Context-Dependent Probabilistic Models |
 | | In some cases, even if the binding score for one single site is weak, the cooperative binding score for both factors is strong enough so that their precise identifications can be achieved. |  | | In this study, we have explored genome-wide analyses for cooperative binding activities and context-dependent transcriptional regulations. |  | | Recent biological studies have revealed that context dependencies of transcriptional activations among multiple transcription factors are important to understand the mechanisms of complex transcriptional regulations, and the context dependencies enable combinatorial regulations among different types of transcriptional factors (TFs) such as ubiquitous TFs and signal-specific TFs to execute an exponentially larger number of regulatory decisions. |
