A method for reformulating the thermodynamic (delta G) description of complex equilibria is presented. The purpose of this reformulation is to take a system of N complexes which is completely defined by N delta Gs, and recast it in terms of a new set of N delta Gs. This reformulation is an extension of the concept of interaction energy (J. Wyman, Adv. Protein Chem. 19 (1964) 223-286). The new delta Gs obtained by this reformulation reflect the intrinsic properties of the binding sites and the hierarchical nature of potential interactions between them. A simple set of rules are developed which allow for the description of complex protein-ligand binding schemes and these rules are used to derive schemes for hemoglobin O2 binding. This reformulation represents the foundation for the theoretical description of the coupling of energy in protein-ligand systems as illustrated by the theoretical analysis of allosterism in a dimeric protein presented in the following paper. This reformulation also provides the foundation for the analysis of data pertaining to complex equilibria.
Mössbauer spectra of deoxymyoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, and the synthetic analogues, iron (II) 2-methylimidazole meso-tetraphenylporphyrin, and iron (II) 1,2-dimethylimidazole meso-tetraphenylporphyrin have been observed in high magnetic fields and over a wide range of temperature. At temperatures greater than 20 K all materials exhibit remarkably similar spectra, with anisotropic internal magnetic fields decreasing as 1/T. All have negative quadrupole interaction, and both this and the magnetic anisotropy imply that the orbital of the odd electron is prolate in the ground quintet, with little unquenched orbital angular momentum. At 4.2 K the spectra differ, suggesting different detailed structure within the quintet. In contrast to the proteins, the 2-methyl model exhibits spectra at 4.2 K which imply that the lowest spin state has high susceptibility in a single direction.
