The Biotin-Streptavidin complex is a widely studied system in biology and biophysics, because of its extremely strong non-covalent binding affinity. The latter is often exploited to link molecules to substrates or to one another. However, the details of the Biotin-Streptavidin binding have not been fully elucidated so far. Particularly, the role of cooperative effects in enhancing the binding...
