Stopped-flow kinetics for the binding between TAZ1 and Hif-1α CAD. (A) Example of a binding kinetics trace for TAZ1/Hif-1α CAD (0.5 μM/8 μM), and a double-exponential function was used for fitting. The inset shows a zoomed view of the fast phase. (B) The concentration dependence of kobs for the slow (inset) and fast phase. The kobs for the fast phase is linearly dependent on Hif-1α CAD concentration while the kobs for the slow phase is concentration independent, with a value of 3–4 s−1 for all Hif-1α CAD variants. konapp was obtained by fitting the concentration dependence of kobs for the fast phase to the general equation for association of two molecules28.
