  1. Data (mean ± s.e.m.) of wild-type and the indicated mutants of Asc1 corresponds to n = 3 independent experiments run in triplicates. A linear model was used to compare conditions after log-transforming the data to obtain p values. P values were adjusted for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini-Hochberg method (see material and methods): ns, non-significant; (***) p < 0.001. WT vs S56A Km, p = 7.20 ∙ 10−5; WT vs S56A Vmax, p = 2.46 ∙ 10−8; WT vs S246G Km, p = 0.104; WT vs S246G Vmax, p = 5.93 ∙ 10−7; WT vs Y333F Km, p = 0.878; WT vs Y333F Vmax, p = 1.06 ∙ 10−7.
