Which of the following situations would produce a Hill plot with nH < 1.0? Explain your reasoning in each case.(a) The protein has multiple subunits, each with a single ligand-binding site. Binding of ligand to one site decreases the binding affinity of other sites for the ligand.(b) The protein is a single polypeptide with two ligand-binding sites, each having a different affinity for the ligand.(c) The protein is a single polypeptide with a single ligand-binding site. As purified, the protein preparation is heterogeneous, containing some protein molecules that are partially denatured and thus have a lower binding affinity for the ligand.
