a Stopped-flow tryptophan fluorescence spectrometry measurements at ambient temperature (23 °C).

b Activity-based determination of association at different molar ratios (BLIP-II-β-lactamase) at ambient temperature (23 °C). The on-rate constants were determined using the psuedo-first order rate equation for the 10:1 and 5:1 molar ratio assays. The second-order rate equation was used for the 2:1 molar ratio experiments (see “Experimental Procedures”).

c There were not enough data points to accurately determine the association rate constant using this method because of the rapid association due to the high concentrations of the PC1 β-lactamase enzyme needed for this assay.

d Average association rate constants from the different experimental methods.

e Activity-based dissociation experiments using inactive TEM-1 E166A-substituted enzyme in the competitive displacement assay. First-order reaction kinetics were used to determine the dissociation rate constants (see “Experimental Procedures”).

f The dissociation constant (Kd) was calculated from the dissociation rate constant and averaged association rate constant at ambient temperature (23 °C).

g The BLIP affinities to these β-lactamases were determined previously (34, 40).
