Summary of kinetic assays

T-Cc S-Cc hh-Cc
Reducing activity, K, sec−1 × 10−3 2.3 0.7 0.9
Degradation constant, KD, sec−1 × 10−4 10.29 13.67 18.26
Half life of bleaching, T1/2, sec 604 410 300
Ascorbate reduction, KR, sec−1 × 10−4 16.08 55.53 35.92

K and KD were calculated as described in the text. T1/2 was measured directly from the curve in Fig. 2B. The linear regions of Fig. 2C (1-20 μM) yield the apparent first-order reduction constant, KR.
