| Comparison | EC50 | HillSlope | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| F (DFn, DFd) | P value | F (DFn, DFd) | P value | |
| ATP vs. ADP | 156.80 (1, 115) | < 0.0001 | 1.61 (1, 115) | 0.21 |
| ADP vs. AMP | 113.60 (1, 122) | < 0.0001 | 16.40 (1, 122) | 0.00030 |
| ATP vs. AMP | 349.60 (1, 119) | < 0.0001 | 7.07 (1, 119) | 0.021 |
Values were obtained using a non-linear regression curve fit model using a least-square regression statistical fitting method
