Rules for extracting Z from linkage diagrams

Expression	Interpretation
(…)	CPF unit
(K)	CPF = 1 + K
(KE)	CPF = 1 + KE
(J)(K)	CPF = (1 + J)(1 + K)
$((A) \overset{K}{\to} (B))$	CPF = (CPF_A) + K(CPF_B)
$((A) \overset{K}{\to} (B) \overset{K^{2}}{\to} (C))$	CPF = (CPF_A) + K(CPF_B) + K²(CPF_C)
$(K_{[F]})$	CPF = f(K₁, K₂, K₃,…F₁, F₂, F₃,…)
${(K_{[F]})}_{(-)}$	CPF₍₋₎ = 1
${(K_{[F]})}_{(+)}$	CPF₍₊₎ = K₁K₂K₃…F₁F₂F₃…

J and K are particle equilibrium constants; C and F are allosteric factors; A, B, and C represent limiting states; and variables in bold type (K, F) represent composite particles.
