The rate constants and are redefined here as and and are in the units of nmol/mg/s; the binding constants and are in the units of molar. The kinetic and biophysical parameters satisfy the kinetic and thermodynamic constraints: and as well as the additional constraint: α e = α x = α≥0. The Case 1 corresponds to and , while the Case 2 corresponds to and . Note that m is an arbitrary number indicating the existence of multiple estimates of the kinetic parameters and in Case 2 of the uniporter model.
