The molecular mass by AUC was measured at 25 °C, using ~0.1 mg/ml sample in fresh Enzyme Storage Buffer, pH 7.0, at 11,000 rpm. The experiments were performed within 48 hrs after eluting all the pools. M = monomer, D = dimer, Tri = trimer, Tet = tetramer, and the dash (−) is used to indicate that different species are in equilibrium. The percentage of each species is given in parenthesis. The AUC data of the following pools are fit equally well to the following models:

b

pools 2 and 3 of non-His-tag WT/His-tag WT also fit to D-Tet (27%,73%) model,

c

pool 3 of non-His-tag R396C/His-tag WT also fits to M-Tri (30%,70%) model,

d

pool 2 of non-His-tag R396H/His-tag WT also fits to M-5mer (29%, 71%) model,

e

in non-His-tag R396C/His-tag R194C pair, pool 2 also fits to M-5mer (25%,75%) model, while pool 3 also fits to the M-Tri (18%,82%) model, and

f

pool 2 and 3 of non-His-tag R396H/His-tag L311V also fits to M-5mer (30%, 70%) model.
