SOD1 / ATTO 594 /
Product Details
Description | Rabbit polyclonal to SOD1 (ATTO-594). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an endogenously produced intracellular enzyme present in almost every cell in the body. It works by catalyzing the dismutation of the superoxide radical O2 to O2 and H2O2, which are then metabolized to H2O and O2 by catalase and glutathione peroxidase (1,4). In general, SODs play a major role in antioxidant defense mechanisms. There are two main types of SOD in mammalian cells. One form (SOD1) contains Cu and Zn ions as a homodimer and exists in the cytoplasm. The two subunits of 16 kDa each are linked by two cysteines forming an intra-subunit disulphide bridge. Misfolding of SOD1 has been implicated in Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Therefore conformation specific antibodies such as SOD1 (EDI), which targets an exposed region of the dimer interface (EDI) of SOD1, are useful for determining the conformation of SOD1 in affected tissues. This antibody can be used in conjunction with SOD1 (U beta B) (SPC-205D) which detects an unfolded beta barrel (U beta B) of SOD1.. - | |

About SOD1
The protein encoded by this gene binds copper and zinc ions and is one of two isozymes responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally-occuring but harmful superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The other isozyme is a mitochondrial protein. In addition, this protein contains an antimicrobial peptide that displays antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-MRSA activity against E. coli, E. faecalis, S. aureus, S. aureus MRSA LPV+, S. agalactiae, and yeast C. krusei. Mutations in this gene have been implicated as causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rare transcript variants have been reported for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]
