The effects of superoxide dismutase on aging were tested using two differt experimental approaches. In the first, replicated populations with postponed aging were compared with their controls for frequencies of electrophoretic alleles at the SOD locus. Populations with postponed aging had consistently greater frequencies of the allele coding for more active SOD protein. This allele was not part of a segregating inversion polymorphism. The second experimental approach was the extraction ofSOD alleles from different natural populations followed by the construction of differentSOD genotypes on hybrid genetic backgrounds. This procedure did not uncover any statistical effect ofSOD genotype on hybrid genetic backgrounds. This effects on longevity and fecundity due to the family from which a particularSOD genotype was derived. To detect the effects ofSOD genotypes on longevity with high probability would require a ten-fold increase in the number of families used. 相似文献

By using highly purified peroxisomes from rat liver, we have shown that peroxisomes contain manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity and a 23 kDa protein immunoreactive with antibodies against purified mitochondrial MnSOD. Immunocytochemical studies have also revealed immunoreaction (immunogold) with MnSOD antibodies in mitochondria and peroxisomes. Studies of the intraperoxisomal localization of MnSOD have shown that in peroxisomes MnSOD is a component of the peroxisomal limiting membranes and dense core. Furthermore, the MnSOD level in peroxisomes was modulated by oxidative stress conditions such as ischemia-reperfusion or the treatment with ciprofibrate, a peroxisomal proliferator. These findings suggest that MnSOD in peroxisomes may play an important role in the dismutation of superoxide generated on the peroxisomal membrane for keeping the delicate balance of the redox state. 相似文献

Two immunoassays have been developed for the determination of rat erythrocyte dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD). An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was very sensitive down to 4 ng/ml with a coefficient of variation (CV) of 18% while the single radial immunodiffusion assay (SRID) permitted an adequate detection level (5 μg/ml) with far better accuracy (CV = 4.2%). The latter was thus selected for the determination of Cu,Zn-SOD in the red blood cells of normal and copper-depleted rats. The average value of Cu,Zn-SOD in normal adult rat erythrocytes was 1142 ± 120 ng/mg hemoglobin. When compared to activity measurements, good correlation was obtained between enzyme content and enzyme activity (r = 0.803, P < .001). In an experimental copper deficiency followed by supplementation, good correlation was observed in the course of depletion (r = 0.848, P < .001) and repletion (r = 0.896, P < .001). During depletion, the loss of enzyme activity was mainly related to a loss of enzyme. However, enzymatically inactive protein was formed which would be activated when copper was added. These results indicate the importance of a combined use of Cu,Zn-SOD immunoquantitation and activity measurements to enable a better understanding of changes occuring with respect to enzyme activity. 相似文献

Abstract Superoxide dismutase activity was detected in Aeromonas salmonicida under iron-replete and iron-limited culture conditions. Under iron-replete conditions an iron superoxide dismutase, molecular mass 50,400 Da, was identified based on inhibition by hydrogen peroxide but not by millimolar concentrations of cyanide. When the available iron in the culture medium was limited by addition of the non-assimilable iron chelator 2,2-dipyridyl, a manganese superoxide dismutase, molecular mass 45,600 Da, was identified, which was resistant to inhibition by either hydrogen peroxide or cyanide. The change in enzyme production would appear to be iron dependent, as addition of FeCl3 in excess to iron-limited broths resulted in only the iron superoxide dismutase being synthesised. Examination of the location of the superoxide dismutase enzymes revealed that the manganese superoxide dismutase expressed under iron limitation is located in the periplasm, while the iron superoxide dismutase has a cytoplasmic location. The periplasmic manganese superoxide dismutase was able to protect A. salmonicida against extracellular riboflavin-generated superoxide, with A. salmonicida grown under iron-limited conditions exhibiting a 32-fold increase in minimum bactericidal concentration of riboflavin compared to cells cultured under iron-replete conditions. Furthermore, in a time-course study of bactericidal activity of exogenously generated superoxide against A. salmonicida , bacteria grown under iron-replete conditions and expressing cytoplasmic iron superoxide dismutase were rapidly killed, whilst those grown under iron limitation expressing periplasmic manganese superoxide dismutase survived for the duration of the experiment. 相似文献

Studies on the inactivation of superoxide dismutase activity by nitric oxide from rat peritoneal macrophages 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Rat peritoneal macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) generated increased levels of superoxide anions (O2ú-) by 122% as compared to those stimulated with PMA alone. However, Nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitors-n-monomethyl arginine (nMMA) or spermine-HCI lowered the enhanced levels of O2ú- released by LPS treated macrophages. The Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in LPS treated macrophages was 51% lower than that observed in resident cells. NO synthase inhibitors prevented the loss of SOD activity in LPS treated cells. Exogenously added SOD during sensitization of cells with LPS also inactivated the enzyme. This inactivation of SOD is inhibited by Nitric oxide synthase inhibitors. PMA alone did not affect SOD activity. NO synthase inhibitors also did not affect PMA activated superoxide anion generation in macrophages. These studies indicate that nitric oxide generated by LPS treated macrophages can inactivate SOD activity. 相似文献

Regulation of superoxide dismutase synthesis in Candida albicans 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The synthesis of superoxide dismutase [SOD: EC 1.15.1.1] in response to various cultural conditions was examined in Candida
albicans, an opportunistic yeast which causes candidiasis in immunosuppressed patients. SOD plays an important role in protecting
cells from the oxidative damage of superoxide radicals. Maximum SOD activity was found after 72 hrs of yeast growth. The optimum
pH and temperature for the SOD activity were 7 and 40 °, respectively. The major SOD activity was found in the cytosol fraction
and the level of extracellular SOD was very low. The enzyme was stimulated to varying degrees by cholic acid, procaine and
tocopherol. On the basis of inhibitor studies and other enzyme properties, the isolated enzyme from C. albicans is identified
as copper and zinc superoxide dismutase.

Superoxide dismutases convert superoxide anions to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. These enzymes constitute one of the major defense mechanisms of cells against oxidative stress and play a role in the pathogenesis of certain invasive bacteria. In this study, we reported for the first time here that Providencia alcalifaciens, a member of the family Enterobacteriaceae, produces a superoxide dismutase (SOD) as a major protein in culture supernatants. This protein was purified by a series of column chromatographic separations. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the protein was determined to be highly homologous to manganese superoxide dismutase of Escherichia coli or Salmonella reported. The gene (sodA) encoding for SOD of P. alcalifaciens was cloned and sequenced. The sodA-encoded protein has a molecular weight of about 23.5 kDa, and the DNA sequence of P. alcalifaciens sodA gene (627 bp) has about 83% identity to the E. coli SOD gene. We constructed a sodA deletion mutant and its complemented strain of P. alcalifaciens. In J774, a macrophage cell line, the sodA deletion mutant was more susceptible to killing by macrophages than the wildtype strain and its complemented strain. When we injected the mutant strain, its complemented strain and wildtype strain intraperitoneally into DDY strain mice, we found that the sodA deletion mutant proved significantly less virulent while the complemented strain recovered the virulence to the same level of wildtype strain of P. alcalifaciens. These results suggested that manganese superoxide dismutase plays an important role in intracellular survival of P. alcalifaciens. 相似文献

A copper-deprived form of the enzyme Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase was identifiedin the liver of rats made copper-deficient by dietary restriction. In homogenates ofsuch livers Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase presents a dis-homogeneous electrophoreticprofile with respect to the native enzyme. When rat liver extracts were treated withexogenous copper an electrophoretic pattern resembling the native one was observed.Enzyme purified by chromatography on DE-52 resin shows two major components, onecorresponding to genuine, native enzyme and another one, eluting at higher ionicstrength. The latter protein (Fraction II) consists of several isoforms which showthe same characteristics of the native superoxide dismutase as far as immunoreactivityand molecular weight are concerned, but with decreased contents of copper and zinc. Itscatalytic constant, referring to copper content, was 15 times lower than that obtainedfor the native enzyme. Moreover, the catalytic power of purified Fraction II was notregained upon incubation with copper. The occurrence of a superoxide dismutase voidof metals confirms the hypothesis that this protein plays a dual physiological role:in metal metabolism and in superoxide anion dismutation. 相似文献

Expression of human extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD), a glycosylated, tetrameric metalloprotein, was targeted to the lactating mammary gland of transgenic rabbits. Efficient expression of the recombinant whey acidic protein/ec-sod gene was achieved and up to 3 mg ml–1 of the enzyme was secreted into the milk. Rabbit milk-produced recombinant EC-SOD was primarily found in the whey and purified by a two-step chromatographic method. To evaluate the rabbit milk-produced human EC-SOD, comparisons with native and Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO)-produced EC-SOD were performed. All proteins were tetrameric and N-glycosylated. The behaviour on SDS-PAGE and size-exclusion chromatography indicated that the masses, and thereby the extent of post-translational modification of the proteins was similar. The monosaccharide composition of both recombinant EC-SOD variants was analysed and indicated similarities in the attached N-glycans on the two proteins. Furthermore, the peptide maps of the three EC-SOD variants revealed that all proteins had similar polypeptide backbones 相似文献

The cDNA sequences for Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase from two Cervus elaphus subspecies, North American wapiti and European red deer, were determined. The derived amino acid sequences showed two differences: residue 8 was Leu in wapiti and Met in red deer and residue 25 was His in wapiti and Asn in red deer. The extra positive charge at position 25 in the wapiti isoform accounted for its greater mobility towards the cathode during non-denaturing electrophoresis, a procedure widely used in the genetic analysis of deer. There was no difference in specific activity between the two Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase isoforms, but the wapiti isoform was slightly more susceptible to heat denaturation. 相似文献

Reduced glutathione was found to affect the assay for superoxide dismutase when autooxidation of epinephrine, but not pyrogallol, was used as the indicator. Glutathione concentrations in the micromolar range, which correspond to levels in erythrocyte extracts, were capable of perturbing the epinephrine assay method and causing overestimation of enzyme content. The pyrogallol method was not significantly affected by large excesses of glutathione and appears to be a superior method for tissue extracts likely to be rich in glutathione. 相似文献

We investigated the possible existence of superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) isoenzymes in the pollen of Nicotiana tabacum (Petit Havana SR-1 cultivar). To detect SOD activity, crude extracts from tobacco pollen were subjected to native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by staining with nitroblue tetra-zolium (NBT). The presence of six SOD isoenzymes was detected in tobacco pollen. Treatment with SOD inhibitors indicated the presence of one manganese SOD (Mn SOD), five copper-zinc SOD (Cu/Zn SOD) isoenzymes, and the absence of iron SOD (Fe SOD). 相似文献
