چکیده
aerobic and many anaerobic are Table 1. Characteristics of the chloroplastic Cu/Zn-SOD from aspen subiect to oxidative stress resulting from the deleterious efv fects of reduced oxygen species. SOD has been identified as a key enzyme in protecting the cells from oxidative damage by catalyzing the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2-) to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen (Fridovich, 1986).

Nucleotide sequence of a complementary DNA encoding pea cytosolic copper/zinc superoxide dismutase.
SOD2 (EC 1.15.1.1), a metalloenzyme that catalyzes the disproportionation ofsuperoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, is important in cellular defense against oxygen toxicity (reviewed in ref. 5). In pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaf, three forms of the enzyme exist, all ofwhich are nuclear encoded and catalyze the same dismutation reaction. The Cu/Zn SOD is the predominant form ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, characterization, and expression of a cDNA coding Copper/Zinc superoxide dismutase from black porgy.
A full-length complementary DNA (cDNA) clone encoding a putative copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) was amplified by a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) based technique from cDNA synthesized from black porgy, Acanthopagrus schlegeli, mRNA. Nucleotide sequence analysis of this cDNA clone revealed that it comprised a complete open reading frame coding for 154 amino acid residues. The dedu...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterisation of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) from the giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii.
A copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) cDNA was cloned from the hepatopancreas of giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) by degenerate primers. Both 3'- and 5'-regions were isolated by the rapid amplification of cDNA ends method. Analysis of nucleotide sequence revealed that the Cu,Zn-SOD cDNA clone consists of 845...
متن کاملA copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase that confers three types of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase activity in Arabidopsis.
The copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase (CCS) has been identified as a key factor integrating copper into copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and mammals. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), only one putative CCS gene (AtCCS, At1g12520) has been identified. The predicted AtCCS polypeptide contains three distinct domains: a central domain, flan...
متن کاملCharacterization of copper/zinc-superoxide dismutase from Pagrus major cDNA and enzyme stability.
A full-length cDNA of 794 bp encoding a putative copper/zinc-superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) from Pagrus major was cloned by the PCR approach. Nucleotide sequence analysis of this cDNA clone revealed that it comprises a complete open reading frame coding for 154 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence showed high similarity (53-91%) with the sequences of Cu/Zn-SOD from other speci...
