  1. aAll reactions were made in 50 mM Bis–Tris buffer pH 6.1 at 25 °C and contained glucose oxidase, 10 mM glucose and 0.1 mM ascorbic acid.
  2. bHalf-inhibiting concentrations of the enzyme of interest were calculated from the measured rates of the reference reaction in the absence (Vlim) and presence (vref) of the enzyme of interest, according to Eq. (5).
  3. c(kcat/Km)app for the enzyme of interest were calculated from the concentration of the reference enzyme, the [E]50 and the (kcat/Km)app of the reference enzyme for H2O2, using Eq. (6). The (kcat/Km)app values of the reference enzymes used in calculations were 1.5 ± 0.7, 7.1 ± 1.2, and 13.4 ± 0.5 µM−1 s−1 for the SmAA10A/CNW, HRP/ABTS, and HRP/AmplexRed reference reactions, respectively. The SD is for the measurement of (kcat/Km)app of the enzyme of interest and does not include the SD of (kcat/Km)app of the reference enzyme.
  4. dThe true kcat/Km values for H2O2 were found from nonlinear regression analysis of the dependency of (kcat/Km)app on [S] according to Eq. (7).
