Many screening hits inhibit enzymes with steep dose-response curves, which are considered pathological. Three models might explain these curves: multisite binding, an inhibitor phase transition, or stoichiometric inhibition caused by a high enzyme to K-d ratio. Experiments with promiscuous aggregators, for which steep curves are common, suggest that these curves owe to stoichiometric inhibition, which predicts that IC50 should vary linearly with enzyme concentration. Most steep dose-response curves in screening may be due to this effect.
