See Table 1 for composition.

b

Percent deuterium uptake relative to theoretical maximum by intact Mb after 144 h of HDX at 5 °C, 43% RH (n = 3, mean ± SD).

c

Parameters determined by nonlinear regression of ssHDX-MS kinetic data. Time course of deuterium exchange for intact Mb was fitted to a biexponential association model (Eqn. 2). Values in parentheses are standard errors of the regression parameters.

d

The percent change in measurements were calculated as 100 × [(value from MbS – value from MbT)/ (value from MbT)].
