Popis: The application of the method of continuous variation to protein-ligand complexes is critically examined for the case of a nonassociating protein which has n equivalent and independent ligand-binding sites. It is shown that in order to obtain a reliable estimate of the stoichiometry, the sum of protein and ligand concentrations must be kept large relative to the dissociation constant.
