Estimation of pseudodimer effects

Pseudodimer fraction
Parameter 0% 5% 10% 15%
k1 (× 105/M/s) 7.04 (1.00) 8.88 (1.26) 10.1 (1.43) 13.2 (1.88)
k2 (× 107/M/s) 5.48 (1.00) 5.69 (1.04) 5.57 (1.02) 6.56 (1.20)
k3 (× 108/M/s) 2.16 (1.00) 2.01 (0.93) 1.98 (0.92) 1.81 (0.84)
Predimers (per cell) 448 (1.00) 424 (0.95) 406 (0.91) 353 (0.79)

Fitting to the model shown in the text was carried out assuming 0–15% of Rh-EGF dimers in Fig. 5 D were pseudodimers constructed by two Rh-EGF accidentally bound to monomeric EGFRs existing nearby. See text for the meaning of each parameter. Numbers in parentheses are ratios with respect to the numbers at 0% pseudodimer.
