Arginine-specific gingipains (RgpA/RgpB) knockdown modulates neutrophil machinery
Journal of Oral MicrobiologyBackground Gingipains are important virulence factors present in Porphyromonas gingivalis. Arginine-specific gingipains (RgpA and RgpB) are critically associated with increased proteolytic activity and immune system dysfunction, including neutrophilic ...

Copper- and Zinc-containing Superoxide Dismutase Can Act as a Superoxide Reductase and a Superoxide Oxidase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2000 The copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase can catalyze the oxidation of ferrocyanide by O(2) as well as the reduction of ferricyanide by O(2). Thus, it can act as a superoxide dismutase (SOD), a superoxide reductase (SOR), and a superoxide oxidase (SOO).

Extracellular superoxide dismutase VdSOD5 is required for virulence in Verticillium dahliae
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2021 Plants produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to defend pathogens. To counteract this attack, certain pathogens express superoxide dismutases (SODs) to scavenge host-derived ROS.
