We tested the steady-state levels of ROS in these mutants by measuring oxidation of the dye 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) (Figure 3B).
Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase) activity was determined in 10 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.4) with 0.1% reduced cytochrome c (reduced by sodium hydrosulfate) by measuring oxidation of reduced cytochrome c at 550 nm (extinction coefficient 19.0 mM/cm) [29].
The reaction was started by addition of 3-4 mM acetolactate and monitored by measuring oxidation of NADPH spectrophotometrically at 340 nm.
The reaction was started by addition of 2 mM KIV and monitored by measuring oxidation of NADH spectrophotometrically at 340 nm.
Briefly, complex I activity (NADH ubiquinone oxidoreductase) was determined by measuring oxidation of NADH at 340 nm (using ferricyanide as the electron acceptor).
Laccase activity was calculated by measuring oxidation of 5 mM ABTS in 25 mM succinate buffer (pH 4.5) at 436 nm, using the absorption coefficient of 29 300 M-1 cm-1 [ 46].
