a

Parameter values were found by non-linear regression analysis of data in Figure 1. Error limits are the parameter errors from the non-linear regression route and are not primarily statistical in origin.

b

Dataset was restricted with [TrCel7A]Free up to 10 nM (Figure 1C) and Langmuiŕs one binding site model was used in analysis.

c

Dataset was restricted with [TrCel7A]Free up to 1.0 µM (Figure 1B) and Langmuiŕs two binding site model was used in analysis. Parameter values for the first, high affinity binding mode were fixed and the parameter values for the second, medium affinity binding mode were found by non-linear regression analysis.

d

Full dataset (n = 82) was analyzed according Langmuiŕs three binding site model (Figure 1A). Parameter values for the first two binding modes were fixed and the parameter values for the third, low affinity binding mode were found by non-linear regression analysis. Because of the low degree of saturation of this binding mode only the value of A max/K d can be found.
