Abstract

The patterns for peak resolution in the analytical ultracentrifuge characteristic of systems associating by different mechanisms are analyzed. These are (i) that in which reequilibration is infinitely slow; (ii) that in which reequilihration is rapid, i.e., a Gilbert-type system; and (iii) that in which reequilibration is rapid, but the self-association is mediated by a ligand. Criteria for distinguishing the three are described and illustrated by results on tubulin self-association under various conditions.
