I am working on problems involving protein-protein binding, particularly ones in which two proteins may bind in two or more configurations, and where some of the resultant structures may also bind with other proteins subsequently, and I am wondering how best to format chemical equations.
I am used to writing chemical equations on a single line like:
[A]+[B]kXa−⇀↽−kXd[AB]
but formating a reaction where multiple dimers can arise from the same reaction on a single line looks confusing and ugly:
[AB]X1kXd1−⇀↽−kXa1[A]+[B]kXa2−⇀↽−kXd2[AB]X2
Worse than that, its not clear how one would write an equation where a third configuration could emerge from the reaction.
What is the best way to format equations like this?
