Substrate | Km (mM) | Vmax (units/mg) | kcat (s-1) | kcat/Km (M-1 s-1) | Change in kcat (x-fold) | Change in Km (x-fold) | enantioselectivity (E) |

(R)-2-butanol | 68 ± 3 | 2.2 ± 0.03 | 1.0 | 14.8 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 0.16 |

(R)-2-butanol | 220 ± 10 | 3.77 ± 0.06 | 1.9 | 8.69 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 0.33 |

aAll assays were performed in triplicate at 30 °C with fixed concentrations of NAD+ (10 mM). Assays of 2-butanol oxidation catalyzed by rS-HPCDH3 and rR-HPCDH1 contained 25 and 21 μg of enzyme, respectively. Apparent kinetic constants were determined by fitting experimental data to the standard form of the Michaelis-Menten equation. Apparent Vmax and Km values are reported as means ± standard deviations. All other values are reported as means only. Enantioselectivity was defined as (kcat/Km)R-enantiomer/(kcat/Km)S-enantiomer for (R)-2-butanol oxidation and as (kcat/Km)S-enantiomer/(kcat/Km)R-enantiomer for (S)-2-butanol oxidation.
