Abstract
Utility function and cooperativity in binding systems was studied. Results showed that efficiency does not follow from cooperativity, when the binding process is nonadditive. The concept of utility function was introduced because there is no single parameter to describe cooperativity. No simple relation was observed between utility and cooperativity, whenever indirect correlation exists.
