New cards
How do ligands usually interact with proteins?
Primarily through noncovalent interactions.

New cards
Where do ligand-protein interactions occur?
Between the ligand and amino acids in the protein's binding site.

Many weak noncovalent interactions together allow the ligand to bind specifically to the protein.
