Rates of hydrolysis of (A) PA by PON1Q192 (○–○) and PON1R192 (Δ–Δ); and (B) CMPA by PON1Q192 (○–○) and PON1R192 (Δ–Δ) as a function of sodium chloride concentration.

Figure 4
Substrate dependent rates of hydrolysis of (A) PA by PON1Q192, (B) PA by PON1R192, (C) CMPA by PON1Q192, and (D) CMPA by PON1R192. The assays for PA hydrolysis were run at high salt and those for CMPA at low salt as described in Methods section. Closed symbols indicate plots of velocity (v) versus substrate concentration [S]; open symbols, [S]/v versus [S].

Comparison of the 2 protocols for determining PON1 status. A, Assays using the highly toxic OP substrates DZO and PO. B, Assays using the non-OP substrates PA and CMPA. (○) indicates PON1Q/Q192;(■), PON1Q/R192;(Δ), PON1R/R192.

Rates of PA hydrolysis for each PON1192 phenotype/genotype at low salt concentration: PON1Q/Q192 (○–○), PON1Q/R192, (□–□) and PON1R/R192 (Δ–Δ). Horizontal bars represent the mean AREase activity values for each phenotype.
