a
The yield is the number of moles of KMBA formed per mole of l-methionine consumed, expressed as a percentage.
b
Within a column different single letters indicate that values are significantly different. Two letters indicate that a value is between the values for two groups.
c
The values in parentheses indicate the amount of l-methionine consumed expressed as a percentage of the amount of l-methionine initially added (6.7 mM).
