Each melting curve was baseline corrected and normalized to depict the fraction of bound strands on the y axis. The association constant, Ka, was quantified from the Arrhenius plot following the description in the literature,34 (link) using an in-house written LabVIEW routine (LabVIEW 2010, National Instruments). The dissociation rate, koff, was then quantified from Ka = kon/koff, where the association rate, kon (0.4 μM–1 s–1), was taken from the literature.26 (link),27 (link)
