As 14-3-3 proteins are all known to form constitutive dimers, their assemblies have two binding sites.
Organomagnesium halides in solution also form dimers and higher oligomers, especially at high concentration.
Under special conditions, most OH-containing molecules form dimers, e.g. the water dimer.
The isolated dimerization domain forms extremely stable dimers in vitro.
Carboxylic acids, for example, associate to form dimers in organic solvents (see figure 6.26).
It is not entirely uncommon for tuck-in complex to form dimers with another complex.
Unlike diborane however, organoboranes do not form dimers.
The protein exists as a homotetramer in physiological environment, but has been shown to also form monomers and dimers in solution.
Niobium(V) chloride forms chloro-bridged dimers in the solid state (see figure).
Compounds of the type RSbX tend to form dimers.
