aParameters were derived from Trp fluorescence data shown in Fig. 3b
bThe Stern–Volmer quenching constants were derived from the slopes of the linear regression lines from plots of F 0 /F = 1 + K SV [Q]. All values are the means ± SD of three experiments
cThe values for WT in PC:PA (7:3) were derived from the previously published work (Raja et al. 2007)
dThe values were derived from Trp fluorescence emission spectra and acrylamide quenching plots (data not shown)
