a

TOCL/DOPC liposomes (vscl, 50 mol% CL).

b

Determined with a combination of stopped-flow (Phases 1 and 2) and manual (Phase 3) mixing experiments in a 25 mM HEPES pH 7.4 at final concentrations of 3 μM of Dns-labeled cyt c and 750 μM of total lipid. All measurements were performed at 22±2 °C.

c

Kinetics progress curves for all the variants during Phase 2 could be fit to the process with the rate constant k2 having values between 0.03 and 0.04 s-1.

d

Percent of the observable amplitude for the Dns fuorescence signal during 60 min after mixing (a1, vscl + a2, vscl + a3, vscl=100%, the burst phase is not included).
