a

IC50, 50% inhibitory concentration (zinc concentration required to decrease the cell density of the growing culture to one-half the positive control value with no added zinc). Values are given with standard deviations.

b

b is the slope of the sigmoidal dose-response curve.

c

Value determined in Halle, Germany, for CzcD experiments.

d

Value determined in Tuczon, Ariz., for ZitB experiments.

e

ΔC terminus, deletion of the carboxy terminus.

f

Site that was not changed in CzcD but was changed in ZitB.

g

The phenotype was partially active if the IC50 of the wild type minus deviation was greater than the IC50 of the mutant plus deviation and the IC50 of the mutant minus deviation was less than the IC50 of the vector control plus deviation.

h

Site that was changed in CzcD but was not changed in ZitB.

i

ND, not determined.

j

The phenotype was hypersensitive if the IC50 of the mutant plus deviation was less than the IC50 of the vector control minus deviation.
