Superoxide DismutasE in Spring Barley Caryopses
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was determined in caryopses of spring barley grown in field trials in 2004–2006. A total set under study included five malting varieties with hulled grain, three waxy hull-less and hulled varieties (of US origin ...

Copper/Zinc Superoxide Dismutase in Human Skin: Current Knowledge
Superoxide dismutase is widespread in the human body, including skin and its appendages. Here, we focus on human skin copper/zinc superoxide dismutase, the enzyme that protects skin and its appendages against reactive oxygen species.

EFFECTS OF LOW-TEMPERATURE AND PHYSIOLOGICAL AGE ON SUPEROXIDE-DISMUTASE IN WATER HYACINTH (EICHHORNIA-CRASSIPES SOLMS) [PDF]
Superoxide dismutase activity in water hyacinth leaves was not sensitive to small changes in environmental pH, but declined markedly with greater pH changes.

Superoxide dismutase: an evolutionary puzzle. [PDF]
We have obtained the complete amino acid sequence of copper/zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (SOD, superoxide:superoxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.15.1.1) from Drosophila melanogaster. The sequence of this enzyme is also known for man, horse, cow, and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The rate of evolution of this enzyme is far from constant.

Nickel superoxide dismutase protects nitrogen fixation in Trichodesmium
Trichodesmium, a major diazotroph in tropical and subtropical oceans, provides a significant amount of bioavailable nitrogen in oligotrophic oceans. Remarkably, the cyanobacteria carry out nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis simultaneously under high ...

Amperometric enzyme sensor to check the total antioxidant capacity of several mixed berries. comparison with two other spectrophotometric and fluorimetric methods [PDF]
The aim of this research was to test the correctness of response of a superoxide dismutase amperometric biosensor used for the purpose of measuring and ranking the total antioxidant capacity of several systematically analysed mixed berries.

The Copper Chaperone for Superoxide Dismutase [PDF]
Copper is distributed to distinct localizations in the cell through diverse pathways. We demonstrate here that the delivery of copper to copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is mediated through a soluble factor identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae LYS7 and human CCS (copper chaperone for SOD).

Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase genes in Tribolium castaneum: evolution, molecular characterisation and gene expression during immune priming. [PDF]
The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a normal consequence of the aerobic cell metabolism. Despite their high and potentially detrimental reactivity with various biomolecules, the endogenous production of ROS is a vital part of physiological,
