Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules). Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a nonidentical protein to form a heterodimer. The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. The formation of a protein dimer, a macromolecular structure consists of two noncovalently associated identical or nonidentical subunits. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an identical protein to form a homodimer.
