Error estimates are from propagating errors from nonlinear regression analysis utilizing GraphPad Prism v5.01.

b

The reported kcat value is kcat(apparent), as Km values were not determined; rates for these two mutants were determined at 10 mM pNPX concentration and thus represent a lower boundary on kcat. Each kcat determination was performed in triplicate, and data are means ± standard deviations from the mean.

c

rkcat, residual kcat.
