The Definition of Binding. Binding is, by definition, the act of imposing a duty to keep a commitment. In the insurance industry, binding refers to insurance coverage, and means that coverage is in place, although a policy has yet to be issued. Often, binding takes place through a verbal agreement, in person or over the telephone.
The binding typically results in a change of conformation of the target protein. In DNA-ligand binding studies, the ligand can be a small molecule, ion, or protein which binds to the DNA double helix. The relationship between ligand and binding partner is a function of charge, hydrophobicity, and molecular structure. The instance of binding occurs over an infinitesimal range of time and space, so the rate constant is usually a very small number.
