|---|---|---|---|
| GTPase | ATPase | Inhibitor forb: | |
| None | 100 | 100 | |
| Vanadate (100 μM) | 74 ± 8 | 90 ± 11 | P |
| NaN3 (50 mM) | 80 ± 7.6 | 90 ± 5.8 | F |

Reaction mixtures contained the same protein and nucleotides as those for Table 1. His6-BCTD was preincubated with the compounds for 10 min on ice before addition of nucleotides to initiate the reaction at 37°C.
P, phosphorylation-type ATPase; F, F0F1-type ATPase; V, vacuolar-type ATPase.
