Table I. AChBP ligand binding kinetics.

k1 and k−1 were determined from rate measurements at various ligand concentrations according to kobs = k1[L] + k−1 (cf. Fig. 2) and Kd was calculated from k−1/k1. S.E. values reflect values from three or more measurements. Where S.E. values are not shown, values reflect an average of two measurements.
