Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Synonym | Superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn], EC 1.15.1.1, SOD1, SOD, ALS, ALS1, IPOA. |
Background | Human Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase (SOD1) catalyzes the reaction between superoxide anions and hydrogen to yield molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The enzyme protects the cell against dangerous levels of superoxide. SOD1 binds copper and zinc ions and is 1 of 3 isozymes accountable for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded protein neutralizes supercharged oxygen molecules, which can damage cells if their levels are not controlled. Mutations in SOD1 cause a form of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. |
Description | Recombinant Human Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase expressed in E.Coli is a single monomeric non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 154a.a. and having a total molecular weight of 15.9 kDa.The SOD1 is purified by unique purification methods. |
