The analyzed proteins were mutated forms of MCPIP1 and its ribonuclease domain (MCPIP1D141N, PIN-ZFD141N, and PIND141N). Kd values were determined using DynaFit4 software with the implemented model of sequential binding of two proteins to a single oligonucleotide with a single dissociation constant. Errors are shown as standard deviations, n = 3. Statistical significance (P value < 0.05) between selected groups is shown by the following indexes: a and b for comparison of the MCPIP1D141N with PIND141N and PIN-ZFD141N with PIND141N groups, respectively. Differences observed between the MCPIP1D141N and PIN-ZFD141N groups are not statistically significant.
