Mouse Anti-SOD2 / MnSOD Monoclonal Antibody (CBP4234)

Description

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an antioxidant enzyme that participates in the defense system against reactive oxygen species (ROS). SOD catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide radical anions (O2-) into hydrogen peroxide, which is then catalyzed into non-toxic O2 and H2O by glutathione peroxidase and catalase. Several types of SOD have been identified. These include intracellular copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD/SOD-1), mitochondrial manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD/SOD-2) and extracellular copper, zinc superoxide dismutase Enzyme (EC-SOD / SOD-3). SOD1 exists in the form of a 32 kDa homodimer enzyme in all eukaryotes, and each subunit contains a Cu and Zn ion. Manganese containing 80 kDa tetramer enzyme SOD2 is located in the mitochondrial matrix, next to the main endogenous superoxide source (mitochondrial respiratory chain). SOD3 is a heparin-binding polymer of disulfide-linked dimers, which is mainly expressed in human lungs, blood vessel walls and airways. SOD4 is a copper molecular chaperone for superoxide dismutase (CCS), which specifically delivers Cu to copper/zinc superoxide dismutase. CCS can activate copper/zinc superoxide dismutase by directly inserting Cu cofactors. SOD2 destroys free radicals that are usually produced in cells and are toxic to biological systems.
