Evaluating ACP Sfp/AcpH reaction efficiency

a E.coli ACP
apo #1 butanoyl apo #2 apo #1 octanoyl apo #2 apo #1 rhodamine apo #2 apo #1 coumarin apo #2
mass (mg) 1.9 1.7 1.8 1.6 1.2 1.0 1.6 - 1.0 1.6 - 1.4
step yield - 92% 99% - 77% 83% - - 64% - - 85%
cycle yield 98% 64% 64% 85%
b MBP-PaACP GFP-PaACP Luciferase-ACP
apo #1 rhodamine apo #2 apo #1 rhodamine apo #2 apo #1 rhodamine apo #2
mass (mg) 1.7 1.3 0.9 2.5 2.2 1.6 1.7 1.5 1.0
step yield - 92% 74% - 86% 75% - 82% 68%
cycle yield 57% 65% 56%

All free (d) and fusion (e) ACPs were labeled and unlabeled in order to validate reaction yields.

Elevated yield calculation for obtaining apo-ACP from butanoyl-ACP is most likely due to minor protein or buffer contamination for this sample. Reaction completion was monitored by Urea-PAGE (Supplementary Fig. 16) and SDS-PAGE (Supplementary Fig. 17) as appropriate.
