  • *In all cases, three independent experiments were performed. Details on the assays can be found in the Methods Section.

  • †Determined by non-linear regression of the Michaelis-Menten plot data (see figure 4).

  • NPP, nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase; NTPDase, nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase.
