Hi Angshu,Very interesting experiment. Is the B is in hexameric form in 
solution by itself or it requires A for hexamer formation?
Thanks,Reza

question requires to define precisely the term of "stoichiometry".*If you 
consider the hexamer as "the molecule B", then the expected stoichiometric 
ratio is 1/1  (one molecule  A  should bind to 1 hexamer B).*But if you 
consider the monomer of B as "the molecule" in the cell, then  the expected 
stoichiometric ratio is 1/6 (one molecule of A  should bind to 6 monomers of 
the hexamer B).
Accordingly, you have to define the concentration in the cell as follows: if 
you consider the hexamer as "the molecule B" and, let's suppose you have [B] = 
10 µM of hexamer, then  [B] = 60 µM if you consider  the monomer of B as "the 
molecule".I hope I answered your question.Philippe Dumas

Dearall, 

Apologiesfor an off-topic question. 


There are two proteins- A(monomer) and B(hexamer).As per reports, one molecule 
of A(monomer) should bind to one molecule of B(hexamer).In order to show the 
interaction between the two proteins through ITC, A istaken in the syringe and 
B is taken in the cell. What kind of stoichiometry valuesshould be expected?  

Ilook forward to your responses.

Manythanks in advance. 

Best,

Angshu
