High impact information on ECs2365

  • No ALS-like phenotype is observed in mice overexpressing wild-type SOD1 or mice without any SOD1 activity [2].
  • These dominant mutations, which do not necessarily decrease SOD1 activity, may confer a gain of function that is selectively lethal to motor neurons [2].
  • Two mutations which have been successfully used to generate transgenic mice that develop an ALS-like syndrome are glycine 85 to arginine (G85R) and glycine 93 to alanine (G93A) with the mutant SOD1 allele overexpressed in a normal mouse genetic background [2].
  • Both the iodinating and bactericidal activities were inhibited by catalase and the hydroxyl radical (OH.) scavenger mannitol, whereas superoxide dismutase was ineffective [7].
  • Superoxide dismutase, which removes O2-, consistently inhibited phagocytosis-associated nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction indicating the involvement of O2- in this process [4].

Anatomical context of ECs2365

  • Polyacrylamide electrophoresis separated this activity into a minor band that appeared to be the manganese-containing superoxide dismutase associated with mitochondria and a more concentrated, cyanide-sensitive, cytosol form of the enzyme with electrophoretic mobility that corresponded to that of erythrocyte cuprozinc superoxide dismutase [4].
  • Activity of superoxide dismutase, the enzyme responsible for protecting the cell from the damaging effects of O2-, was approximately equal in homogenates of normal and CGD granulocytes [4].
  • Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase is a peroxisomal enzyme in human fibroblasts and hepatoma cells [16].
  • These defenses include antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and catalase, DNA repair systems, scavenging substrates, and competition with phagocytes for molecular oxygen [17].
  • The failure of intrabacterial catalase or superoxide dismutase to protect bacteria from killing by neutrophils might indicate either that the flux of O-2 and H2O2 in the phagosome is too great for the intrabacterial enzymes to alter or that the site of injury is at the bacterial surface [18].
