Abstract excerpt
Glycine 165, which is located near the active site metal, is mostly conserved in aligned amino acid sequences of manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) proteins, but is substituted to threonine in most iron-containing SODs (Fe-SODs). Because threonine 165 is located between Trp128 and...
