5. Interaction between DNA and protein forms associated complex in different biological environments and can be represented by the following equation (where D=DNA, P =Protein, and D – P = DNA-protein complex): D +P = D- P. K This association can be expressed in terms of association constant K [D-P] which is given as, K = where the terms in the parenthesis [D][P]’ represents the concentration of the species. The value of K changes NaCl Concentration when aqueous solution of NaCl is added to the system. The change of K with respect to NaCl concentration is shown in the figure. What type of interaction is predominantly present between this DNA and protein? Explain your answer.
