a

Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters were obtained from fitting the respective data in Fig. S1, S2, and S3 in the supplemental material to the Michaelis-Menten equation.

b

Experiments were performed in triplicate; plus-minus values represent the standard errors reported from regression analysis.

c

Ratio of enzyme specificity constant (kcat/Km) of mutant AmpC relative to that of WT AmpC.

d

ND, not determined.
