a

Data fit to the Michaelis-Menten equation or the Hill equation based on extra sum-of-squares F test (P < 0.05) using GraphPad Prism 7.0. Values shown with standard deviation from mean.

b

Due to absence of authentic standards, rates reflect normalized MS peak area for metabolite as a function of time, i.e. μV*sec/min/nmol. Final values were scaled x106.

c

Not shown in table: n=1 for Michaelis-Menten equation.

d

Efficiency expressed as slope of formation rate over substrate concentration due to lack of observed saturation.

e

Data taken from Davis et al. (2019). Normalized peak areas (μV*sec) reported from that study were converted to rates (μV*sec/min/nmol) by dividing by protein concentration (100 nM) and reaction time (30 min). This scaled conversion of the values does not change the shape of the plotted curve.
