Figure 4. Antioxidant activity of BxPrx in vitro.

Figure 4

(A) Antioxidant activity of BxPrx transformants was investigated using a discs assay. (B) Difference of susceptibility to H2O2 between E. coli with pET-28a-BxPrx and blank pET-28a transformed were compared by the killing zone diameter. (C) DNA protection assay. Free oxidant radical attack was generated due to the presence of Fe3+ and DTT. PUC19 plasmid was incubated for 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h respectively. After attacked by the radical, supercoiled plasmid (SC) was degraded to slower-moving nicking (N), and then slowest linear DNA (L).
