This analysis shows discrepancies in binding affinity Kd values in cellular assays, highlighting the need to mimic intracellular environments.

Inconsistencies in binding affinity measurements can delay research and drug development.
Biochemical and cellular assays often yield different Kd values due to varying conditions.
Understanding molecular crowding and salt composition can improve assay accuracy.
Biochemical measurements need to replicate intracellular physicochemical conditions for better outcomes.

Kontopidis et al. (2025) studied this question.
