cTnT-ΔK210 T284 7.40 ± 0.93 1.66 ± 0.29 0.22 ± 0.07

cTn-wt T284 9.24 ± 0.75 1.76 ± 0.13 0.19 ± 0.02

In vitro kinase assays (Fig 6) were used to estimate the apparent Michaelis-Menten constant Km(app), Vmax (the maximum rate of reaction at infinite substrate concentration) and the ratio Vmax/Km(app) which denotes catalytic efficiency. Values are means ± SEM.
