Figure 2.
Three parameters characterizing the interaction of a ssDNA lattice with a nonspecific binding protein. The arrowheads represent a nucleic acid lattice position (nucleotide or base pair), and the protein shown covers three such positions (n = 3). The binding constant to an isolated lattice site is K, that to a singly contiguous site is Kω, and that to a doubly contiguous site is Kω2 (see text). Taken from Reference 47.
