Diffusion-controlled reaction rates for clusters of binding sites on a cell
The Berg-Purcell expression for the diffusion-controlled binding rate to N sites uniformly distributed on the surface of a sphere is generalized to clusters of receptors located at the poles of a cell. By replacing a partially reactive surface with one that is covered with N circular sites that act...
