Table 3. Kinetic and affinity determinations of WDR5-SET1Win interactions using SPR.

Values represent mean ± s.d. acquired from at least three independent experimental determinations (separate receptor immobilizations). For MLL2Win, n = 4 independent experimental determinations were used.

kon was not quantitatively determined. Although the WDR5-MLL1Win interactions were detectable using an SPR measurement (Fig. 3), no accurate quantitative determination was made due to the limited time resolution of the approach. In this case, we assume that the kon was in the same order of magnitude with the kon of other SET1Win peptides (~105 M−1s−1).

ND**

koff was not quantitatively determined due to a fast dissociation rate constant. The upper-limit value for the detection of koff is 0.5 s−1 according to instrument specifications. The Biacore 8K+ cannot measure rate constants of dissociation, koff, faster than 0.5 s−1.

Here, KD-SPR was determined using a steady-state SPR measurement (Supplementary Figure S6).
