Further characterization of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase

Further characterization of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase.

1. A simplified procedure for the preparation of highly purified human superoxide dismutase from erythrocytes was developed which avoided extremes of pH and ionic strength and the use of organic solvents; the properties of human and bovine proteins, prepared by the method, were compared. 2. Using the two dimensional electrophoretic procedure of O'Farrell, the human superoxide dismutase was foun...

Human Erythrocyte Superoxide Dismutase Encapsulated in Positively Charged Liposomes

      Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an important antioxidant that protects many types of cells from the free radical damage. One of the possible ways for the use of SOD is its incorporation in liposomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cationic phospholipids on the entrapment of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) in liposomes. Also, in the present study, w...

Characterization of crystals of genetically engineered human manganese superoxide dismutase.

The genetically engineered human manganese superoxide dismutase crystallizes in space group P2(1)2(1)2 with a = 75.51 A, b = 79.00 A, c = 67.95 A. At room temperature the crystals are not stable against radiation, so we cooled them to 90 K and collected a data set to 3 A resolution at this temperature.
