The Kd values of antibody-to-antigen binding range from 10-12 M to 10-8 M. Antibody X binds to wild-type E. coli ssDNA-binding protein, showing a value of Kd =10-11 M

When antibody X binds to a mutant derived ssDNA-binding protein that contains a single amino acid substitution, a value of Kd = 10-7 M is determined. We can conclude that: A. the amino acid substitution has increased the affinity of antibody X. B. the amino acid substitution has decreased the affinity of antibody X. C. the amino acid substitution has increased the affinity of ssDNA-binding protein to DNA. D. the amino acid substitution has decreased the affinity of ssDNA-binding protein to DNA. E. None of these choices is correct.
