A simple method is reported to detect cooperative interactions in the binding of polypeptide hormones to their membrane receptors. The dissociation of radioiodinated hormone from the receptor is studied under two conditions: first, by diluting the hormone-receptor complex sufficiently to prevent rebinding of the dissociated tracer; second, by dilution to the same extent in a medium containing an excess of unlabeled hormone. If the sites are independent, the dissociation rates must be the same in both cases. If the presence of unlabeled hormone increases the dissociation rate of the tracer, negatively cooperative interactions must occur. Insulin receptors on cultured lymphocytes and liver plasma membranes show negative cooperative interactions. Growth hormone receptor sites lack these interactions.
