Human superoxide dismutase 1 (hSOD1) maturation through interaction with human copper chaperone for SOD1 (hCCS).
Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), CCS, is the physiological partner for the complex mechanism of SOD1 maturation. We report an in vitro model for human CCS-dependent SOD1 maturation based on the study of the interactions of human SOD1 (hSOD1) with full-length WT human CCS (hCCS), as well as with hCCS mutants and various truncated constructs comprising one or two of the protein...
متن کاملOverexpression of human copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) prevents postischemic injury.
Superoxide and superoxide-derived oxidants have been hypothesized to be important mediators of postischemic injury. Whereas copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase, SOD1, efficiently dismutates superoxide, there has been controversy regarding whether increasing intracellular SOD1 expression would protect against or potentiate cellular injury. To determine whether increased SOD1 protects the heart fro...
متن کاملChlorovirus PBCV-1 encodes an active copper-zinc superoxide dismutase.
UNLABELLED Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are metalloproteins that protect organisms from toxic reactive oxygen species by catalyzing the conversion of superoxide anion to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen. Chlorovirus PBCV-1 encodes a 187-amino-acid protein that resembles a Cu-Zn SOD with all of the conserved amino acid residues for binding copper and zinc (named cvSOD). cvSOD has an intern...
متن کاملTotal reconstitution of copper-zinc superoxide dismutase.
The total reconstitution of copper-zinc superoxide dismutase by stoichiometric addition of the metals to completely metal-free apoprotein is described. Reconstitution has been monitored by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and absorption spectroscopy, enzymic activity, and acrylamide gel el%ctrophoresis. Under the same conditions, it has been possible to prepare highly active enzymes with c...
متن کاملActivation of brain calcineurin (Cn) by Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) depends on direct SOD1-Cn protein interactions occurring in vitro and in vivo.
Cn (calcineurin) activity is stabilized by SOD1 (Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase), a phenomenon attributed to protection from superoxide (O2*-). The effects of O2*- on Cn are still controversial. We found that O2*-, generated either in vitro or in vivo did not affect Cn activity. Yet native bovine, recombinant human or rat, and two chimaeras of human SOD1-rat SOD1, all activated Cn, but SOD2 (Mn-sup...
