Table 1. Calculated values of the rate and dissociation constants from Scheme 4.

Rate and dissociation constants for CoBcII-catalysed hydrolysis of cefoxitin (1), cephaloridine (2) and benzylpenicillin (3) in 0.025 M buffer, I=0.25 M, at 30 °C, (Kd=6.0×10−5 M). The corresponding values, determined in similar conditions for the native ZnBcII, are given for comparison.
