The kpol and KD values represent the averages and standard errors from three independent determinations.

b

Calculated by kpol for dATP·T divided by kpol for dNTP·T.

c

Calculated by KD for dNTP·T divided by KD for dATP·T.

d

Calculated by kpol/KD for dATP·T divided by kpol/KD for dNTP·T.

e

ND, no detectable incorporation observed.
