Role of prokaryotic Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase in pathogenesis

1 Dec 2003

Abstract excerpt

Several bacterial pathogens possess sodC genes that encode periplasmic or membrane-associated Cu,Zn superoxide dismutases. Since professional phagocytes generate large amounts of reactive oxygen species to control the growth of invading micro-organisms, Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase might protect infectious bacteria from oxy-radical damage and facilitate their survival within the host. This idea has gained support...
