Characterization of superoxide dismutase from the fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea: Comparison of its properties to superoxide dismutase from the silkworm Bombyx mori

Superoxide dismutase from the silkworm, Bombyx mori: sequence, distribution, and overexpression.

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an enzyme facilitating the removal of superoxide anions from living organisms. This study focused on SOD from the silkworm, Bombyx mori (bmSOD). cDNA encoding bmSOD was amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. The deduced amino acid sequence of bmSOD indicated that the residues forming the Cu/Zn binding site are conserved and that the sequence ...

Superoxide dismutase Superoxide dismutase

The purification and properties of superoxide dismutase from Neurospora crassa.

Soluble extracts of Neurospora crassa contain a single, electrophoretically distinct, superoxide dismutase. This enzyme has been isolated and has been found to be a bluegreen, copperand zinc-containing enzyme, similar to that already described from bovine tissues and from garden peas. The molecular weight was ,approximately 31,000, and the enzyme appeared to be composed of 2 subunits of equal s...

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

the role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union

پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
