Redox Titration of Wild-Type and Mutant At GCL.
(A) Purified wild-type GCL was incubated at either pH 7.0 (circles) or pH 7.9 (squares) for 90 min in the presence of 10 mM DTT (total) at defined thiol/disulfide ratios. GCL activity was measured as a function of ambient redox environment (Eh). Solid lines are fits of the data to the Nernst equation (n = 2). Data shown are the average of three replicates.
(B) Purified C102S (circles), C251S (squares), C349S (triangles), and C364S (diamonds) At GCL mutants were incubated at pH 7.0 for 90 min in the presence of 10 mM DTT (total) at defined thiol/disulfide ratios. GCL activity was measured as a function of ambient redox environment (Eh). Solid lines are fits of the data to the Nernst equation (n = 2). Data points shown are the average of three replicates.
