Fig. 2. H2O2 released from mitochondria is not detected in the nucleus at levels that are compatible with cell survival.

ad H2O2 measurements using the ratiometric HyPer7 sensor to determine diffusion of DAAO-produced H2O2. Treating cells with 400 µM H2O2 was used to determine 100% HyPer7 oxidation. Lowest oxidation measured was set to 0%. NES-HyPer7, localized in the cytosol, becomes already oxidized at the lowest concentration (2.5 mM) of D-Ala used in RPE1-hTERT-DAAOTOM20 cells (a) In contrast, nuclear NLS-HyPer7 oxidation is not detected at 0–10 mM D-Ala. b NLS-HyPer7 oxidation is already detected at 2.5 mM D-Ala in RPE1-hTERT-DAAOH2B cells (c) while NES-HyPer7 oxidation is only detected starting from 10 mM D-Ala. d Data are presented as mean values -/+ SD, n = 3 biological replicates. Source data are provided in the Source Data file. e Representative image of crystal violet staining of DAAO lines after 24 h L/D-Ala treatment. Both RPE1-hTERT-DAAOH2B and RPE1-hTERT-DAAOTOM20 cells do not survive continuous D-Ala treatments above 10 mM D-Ala. Experiment was repeated at least 3 times, a representative image is shown.
