a

Metallosubstituted HDAC8 was generated as described in the Materials and Methods. Metal-free enzyme was generated by dialyzing with EDTA. Each metal ion was subsequently introduced at a concentration of 100 μM chloride salt and dialyzed to a final concentration of 100 nM. Metal ion content of final protein samples was determined by ICP mass spectrometry.

b

The ratios of metal ion to protein was determined by dividing the metal ion concentration, as determined by ICP mass spectrometry, by the protein concentration, as determined by Bradford assay.

c

Native HDAC8 refers to recombinant protein expressed in E. coli with 100 μM ZnCl2.

d

“—” signifies a value of less than 0.01.

e

ND signifies not determined.
