Affinity of TLR3ecd binding to dsRNA

dsRNA length, bp Kd_apparent, nM
pH 6.5 pH 6.0 pH 5.5
39 2,250 ± 70 510 ± 23 72.6 ± 1.7
48 2,610 ± 80 156 ± 7 13.6 ± 0.3
139 487 ± 12 31.7 ± 0.6 9.19 ± 0.21
540 782 ± 15 28.2 ± 0.9 4.64 ± 0.11

Apparent equilibrium dissociation constants (Kd_apparent) were calculated for each dsRNA size and pH by fitting kinetic data from SPR experiments to a simple single-step binding model (A+B ↔ AB). See SI Table 2 for a similar analysis using a cooperative binding model. The standard error associated with each calculation is indicated.
