Oxidase activity of the six AA9-X282s was measured according to the protocol described by Kittl et al.26 (link). The reaction mixture contained Amplex Red reagent (200 µM; Thermo Fisher Scientific), Horseradish peroxidase (HRP; 0.1 mg.mL-1 final) and AA9-X282s (1 µM). The reactions were performed in 96-well microplates in sodium phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 7.0) and started by adding 50 μM of ascorbic acid. The H2O2 production rate is reflected by the production rate of resorufin, i.e. the product of Amplex Red oxidation by HRP and H2O2, which was monitored at 575 nm over a 30 min period. The initial slope of the curve, normalized with the enzyme concentration, was used to calculate the H2O2 production rate.
