  1. WT, Wildtype; Mutant 1, R118K/R159K/R283K; Mutant 2, R118K/R159K; Mutant 3, R118K/R159K/K232N/K241F/R283K; Mutant 4, R118K/R159K/K232N/K241F. Modelled k-values were calculated using the Enzfitter™ software package (Version 1.05. Cambridge UK: Biosoft Ltd.; 1987). Values are the mean of three independent determinations in each case. Standard deviations were < 5% for solvent and < 10% for H2O2 studies. Units of C50 are % v/v for solvents and mM for H2O2.
