Rate constants for dephosphorylation of CheY variants with imidazole and water

Receiver domaina kdephos,imida(M−1s−1) kdephos,waterb ×10−5 (M−1s−1) Relative sensitivity to imidazolec
CheYwt 1.1 ± 0.1 75.0 ± 9.0d 1,500
CheYsmall 1.2 ± 0.04 9.0 ± 0.6e 14,000
CheYlarge 0.25 ± 0.005 3.3 ± 0.0d 8,200

a

Values are averages of second order rate constants from 2–3 measurements (completed at pH 10.3) ± SD and are determined by pH-jump fluorescence except CheYMPI was measured using 32P.

b

Calculated by dividing first order water-mediated dephosphorylation rate constants by the concentration of water (55.5 M).

c

Relative sensitivity to imidazole was calculated by dividing kdephos,imid by kdephos,water.

d

First order water-mediated dephosphorylation rate constants from 22.

e

First order water-mediated dephosphorylation rate constant determined using 32P as previously described in 22.
