Determination of Kiapp values better reflects the potency of the inhibitor compared with IC50app values. (a) Steady-state data and curve fit with the explicit binding model for the four inhibitors. (b) Kiapp, error and coefficient of determination (R2). The fit to the explicit model (providing Kiapp values) is superior to the simplistic fit that determines IC50app values, and notably reveals that the inhibition is improved with increased alkyl-chain length at the 5-position of the thiazole ring. |
