Mechanism of inhibition of GSNOR by GSNOR inhibitors
The Kis and Kii are the slope and intercept inhibition constant estimates and are listed with their associated S.E. values. The data were fit to a competitive, noncompetitive (NC), or uncompetitive (UC) inhibition model. The type of inhibition shown represents the best fit of the data to the given model as judged from F statistics analysis.

a KD is the equilibrium dissociation constant of the inhibitor for binding to the GSNOR·NADH complex, obtained by measuring the changes in the fluorescence of GSNOR-bound NADH with the addition of inhibitor (λex = 350 nm; λem = 455 nm). The dissociation constant was measured at 25 °C in 50 mm potassium phosphate, pH 7.5. Each KD value is an average of three independent experiments and is shown with the associated S.E.
