    • Optical density (OD) is widely used to estimate the density of cells in liquid culture, but cannot be compared between instruments without a standardized calibration protocol and is challenging to relate to actual cell count. We address this with an interlaboratory study comparing three simple, low-cost, and highly accessible OD calibration protocols across 244 laboratories, applied to eight strains of constitutive GFP-expressing E. coli. Based on our results, we recommend calibrating OD to estimated cell count using serial dilution of silica microspheres, which produces highly precise calibration (95.5% of residuals <1.2-fold), is easily assessed for quality control, also assesses instrument effective linear range, and can be combined with fluorescence calibration to obtain units of Molecules of Equivalent Fluorescein (MEFL) per cell, allowing direct comparison and data fusion with flow cytometry measurements: in our study, fluorescence per cell measurements showed only a 1.07-fold mean difference between plate reader and flow cytometry data.

  • Mapping the Long-Range Electron Transfer Route in Ligninolytic Peroxidases
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Journal of Physical Chemistry B. - : American Chemical Society (ACS). - 1520-5207 .- 1520-6106. ; 121:16, s. 3946-3954

    • Combining a computational analysis with site-directed mutagenesis, we have studied the long-range electron transfer pathway in versatile and lignin peroxidases, two enzymes of biotechnological interest that play a key role for fungal degradation of the bulky lignin molecule in plant biomass. The in silico study established two possible electron transfer routes starting at the surface tryptophan residue previously identified as responsible for oxidation of the bulky lignin polymer. Moreover, in both enzymes, a second buried tryptophan residue appears as a top electron transfer carrier, indicating the prevalence of one pathway. Site-directed mutagenesis of versatile peroxidase (from Pleurotus eryngii) allowed us to corroborate the computational analysis and the role played by the buried tryptophan (Trp244) and a neighbor phenylalanine residue (Phe198), together with the surface tryptophan, in the electron transfer. These three aromatic residues are highly conserved in all the sequences analyzed (up to a total of 169). The importance of the surface (Trp171) and buried (Trp251) tryptophan residues in lignin peroxidase has been also confirmed by directed mutagenesis of the Phanerochaete chrysosporium enzyme. Overall, the combined procedure identifies analogous electron transfer pathways in the long-range oxidation mechanism for both ligninolytic peroxidases, constituting a good example of how computational analysis avoids making extensive trial-error mutagenic experiments.
