The residual enzyme activity was measured with Suc-(Ala)
3-
p-NA as indicated in the text.
Ki(app), the substrate-dependent
Ki, was obtained by fitting the experimental equilibrium titration data to
eqn (3) [
16]:
where
a is the enzyme relative activity as defined in the legend of
Figure 3. [E]
0 and [I]
0 are the initial enzyme and inhibitor concentrations respectively. The theoretical curve was generated with
Ki(app)=0.102 μM.
