Reduction rates of wild type and R481K CcO from Global analysis. Na-Dithionite was rapidly mixed with wild type or R481K CcO in a stopped-flow rapid scanning spectrophotometer (OLIS rsm-16) (see Figure 5). Global fitting of the resulting spectral scans from the averaging of at least 2 separate measurements of 3 data sets gave kinetic rates (kobs s-1) of reduction for each of the hemes. Standard deviations given are from the averaging of data sets.
