Values of parameters given ± standard errors derived from the least squares regression analysis of the data in Fig 8. K1 is the dissociation constant of the of the enzyme.MgTNP-ATP complex formed in the fast phase whilst K2 is either an equilibrium constant that describes the equilibrium between two conformational states of the enzyme.MgTNP-ATP complex formed in the fast phase (eqs vii and viii) or the dissociation constant of the enzyme.MgTNP-ATP complex formed in the intermediate phase, involving the binding of one or two more MgTNP-ATP molecules. Both K1 and K2 were calculated from the ratios k-1/k1 and k-2/k2 respectively.
