PDI increases the secretion of both wild-type and C75S β-glucosidase at 30°C as detected by Western blot analysis and activity assay. Single colonies of BJ wt, hPDI wt, BJ C75S, and hPDI C75S were grown for 48 h in 5 mL SD-2xSCAA dextrose liquid growth media minus tryptophan supplements at 30°C. SD media was removed by centrifugation, and the cell pellet was resuspended to 1 OD-mL in 5 mL SG-2xSCAA galactose liquid expression media minus tryptophan supplements. After expression for 48 h at 30°C, extracellular β-glucosidase levels were detected in a constant volume of supernatant separated from cells by centrifugation by Western blot analysis (filled bars) using an anti-c-myc polyclonal antibody for each expression and normalized per cell OD. 20 μL of the supernatant was separated by centrifugation and assayed for active extracellular β-glucosidase (open bars), normalized per cell OD. The average of nine independent expressions is plotted and the error bar represents the standard error of the measurement.
