Proteins

Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)

Human soluble Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) is a soluble cytoplasmic protein functional as a homodimer that binds copper and zink ions. SOD1 catalyzes the reaction O-2 + O-2 + 2H+ → H2O2 + O2, protecting the cell from oxidative damage. SOD1 was first cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli by [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3889846 Hallewell et al., (1985)].

Yeast copper chaperon (yCCS)

Yeast copper chaperon protein (yCCS) is a helper chaperon specific for copper/zinc superoxide dismutase located to the cytoplasm. yCCS generates fully metallized, active SOD1 proteins that in turn protects the cell from oxidative damage.

yCCS has been shown to successfully mediate the delivery of copper ions to human SOD1 ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15358352 Ahl et al. 2003]). Co-expression of SOD1 and yCCS yields proteins with higher copper contents, leading to increased activity and more stable proteins.
