Dissociation constants on the order of micromolar seem to be required to detect interactions in yeast two-hybrid assays.

I'm not sure what millimolar and micromolar concentrations are, nor why this endnote supports Behe's statement that which would allow the two to spend even half of their time together.

Most proteins are present in the cell at well below millimolar concentrations, so in order for two proteins to spend the majority of their time bound to each other, micromolar dissociation constants would be required to form even a “weak, transient” complex Nooren, I.
