Active Recombinant Human Superoxide Dismutase 1, Soluble, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: SOD1-326H

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen. It has been implicated in cellular aging due to its reduced activity in aging cells. Cu/Zn SOD plays a protective role in the pathogenesis of selective neuronal injury after brief ischemia and reduces the degree of necrotic and DNA fragmented neuronal death following global ischemia. Mutant forms of Cu/Zn SOD have been linked to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
• Usage: For in vitro use only.
• Form: Liquid. Supplied in 50 mM sodium citrate buffer pH 5.5, 1 mM DTT, 200 μM ZnSO4, and 200 μM CuSO4.
• Activity: > 2.000 units/mg (One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will double the rate of autoxidation of 5, 6, 6a, 11b-tetrahydro- 3, 9,10-trihydroxybenzo-[c]- fluorene per minute at 37°C, pH 8.8).
• Purity: > 90% by SDS-PAGE.
• Storage: Quality guaranteed for 12 months, Store at -80°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycles.
