Table 3.

Idealized and segmented current records from the same patches were fitted by Scheme V as shown in Fig. 8C

Records from all 7 patches were pooled and fitted simultaneously. The proton concentration was 62 nm (pH 7.3). All loops were constrained to obey microscopic reversibility; proton association rate was fixed to 1.4 × 109m−1 s−1 (Banke et al. 2005); all other rate constants were free parameters during fitting. The ratio of rate constants determined in 300 nm Zn2+ to those determined for control conditions (10 mm tricine, no added Zn2+) is given in the far right column. Rates in bold show more than a 3-fold change in the presence of Zn2+. Rate constants are given to two significant digits.
