Table and Figure Legend

The author wishes to make the following correction to this paper [1]:

In the original article, there were following mistakes:

A common term was incorrectly used in the legend for Table 2. The incorrect parameters “Steady-state ATPase” should be replaced with “Steady-state ATPase Activity”. A parameter was incorrectly assigned in the legend for Table 4. The incorrect parameters “k′+5/K′5K′6” should be replaced with “k′+5K′5K′6”. Parameters were incorrectly assigned in the legend for Figure 5. The incorrect parameters “K5K6” should be replaced with “1/(K5K6)”. Parameters were incorrectly assigned in the legend for Figure 6. The incorrect parameters “K′DPAk+4” should be replaced with “k+4K′DPA”.

Error in Table

In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 3 as published. Rate and equilibrium constants, and corresponding values were incorrectly assigned. The corrected Table 3 appears below.

Text Correction

There were following errors in the original article.

A correction has been made to 2. Results and Discussion:

  1. Paragraph 8. The incorrect constants “K5K6” should be replaced with “1/(K5K6)”.

  2. Paragraph 10. The incorrect constants “K′DPA” should be replaced with “1/K′DPA”. The incorrect constants “K′DPAk′+4” should be replaced with “k′+4K′DPA”.

  3. Paragraph 11. The incorrect constants “K′DPA” should be replaced with “1/K′DPA”.

A correction has been made to 3. Conclusions, Paragraph 1. The incorrect constants “K′5K′6” should be replaced with “1/K′5K′6”.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
