Fig 5. Effect of copper on the peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity of purified recombinants AtCyp19-3 and TaCypA-1 (A).

Fig 5

Effect of Cu2+ on PPIase activity of AtCyp19-3 and TaCypA-1. First order rate constants were analysed using GraFit 4.0 software. The residual PPIase activity (%) is relative to uninhibited control. (B) Inhibition constants (ki) of Cu2+ for AtCyp19-3 and TaCypA-1 were determined as gradient of the line of the best fit from a plot of [Cu2+]/(1-k/ko) against ko/k, where k is the rate constant at any given Cu2+ concentration and ko is the rate constant in the absence of heavy metal. The slope of the line represents the ki. Data represent the mean ± SD of triplicates.
