GroESL protects superoxide dismutase (SOD)— Deficient cells against oxidative stress and is a chaperone for SOD
Superoxide dismutase (SOD)-deficient Escherichia coli OX326A cells are protected against chemically-induced oxidative stress by expression of the chaperonin GroESL. This protection is equivalent to expression of superoxide dismutase even though GroESL has no inherent SOD activity. Co-overexpression of GroESL and SOD in the same cells results in higher protein yields of SOD and greater metallati...
متن کاملA lecithinized superoxide dismutase (PC-SOD) improves ulcerative colitis
OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and efficacy of lecithinized superoxide dismutase (PC-SOD) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). METHOD PC-SOD was injected once daily at doses of 40 mg (n = 22) and 80 mg (n = 20) for a total treatment period of 4 weeks. Efficacy was assessed by UC-Disease Activity Index (DAI) total score. All side effects were recorded and investigated. RESULTS At 4 week...
متن کاملIndustrial Production of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD): A Mini Review
The use of chemical advances to mechanical research, improvement, and assembling has turned into a critical field. Since the creation of rough rennet in 1874, a few catalysts have been marketed, and utilized for restorative, supplementary, and different applications. Late headways in biotechnology now enable organizations to create more secure and more affordable chemicals with upgraded intensi...
متن کاملSuperoxide dismutase SOD-1 modulates C. elegans pathogen avoidance behavior
The C. elegans nervous system mediates protective physiological and behavioral responses amid infection. However, it remains largely unknown how the nervous system responds to reactive oxygen species (ROS) activated by pathogenic microbes during infection. Here, we show superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD-1), an enzyme that converts superoxide into less toxic hydrogen peroxide and oxygen, functions in ...
متن کاملSuper-SOD: superoxide dismutase chimera fights off inflammation.
IN GREEK MYTHOLOGY, the Chimera was a fearsome monster with the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and the tail of a serpent, which was slain by Bellerophon. In their paper (the current article in focus, Ref. 1, see p. L917 in this issue) on the construction of a chimeric superoxide dismutase (SOD), it appears that Gao et al. may have slain the monstrous task of constructing a therapeutically ...
