Effect of RNA and S5 on GTP hydrolysis.

Construct	Specific activity (nM min−1 nM−1)
WT	0.2289 ± 0.0242
ΔN	0.0482 ± 0.024
ΔC	0.084 ± 0.0318
WT + ssRNA	0.1751 ± 0.0101
WT + dsRNA	0.2227 ± 0.0421
WT + S5	0.4699 ± 0.0301

Specific activity is represented as the amount of Pi released (nM) for a given concentration of enzyme (nM) for a certain time (min). Experiments were conducted in duplicates and were reproduced at least twice. The errors represent the standard deviation from the average. Values were corrected for the background intrinsic GTP hydrolysis.
