a

The apparent dissociation constant for conformational activation (KA (v1)) of 10 nM [Lys]Pg by the indicated SK constructs, and the bimolecular rate constant for VLK-pNA hydrolysis by the SK·[Lys]Pg* complex (kcat/Km (v1)) in the absence (No 6-AHA) and presence of 6-AHA (10 mM 6-AHA). Also listed are KA obtained from v2 (KA (v2)) and the bimolecular rate constant for Pm generation from [Lys]Pg (kPg). Parameters were determined by analysis of the data shown in Fig. 6 as described in Materials and methods.

b

Experimental error in the parameters represents the 95% confidence interval.

c

NA represents not analyzable
