Abstract excerpt
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) in general is a unique homo-dimeric enzyme that can scavenge toxic superoxide radicals by dismutation reaction. In IcSOD (Ipomoea carnea SOD), the presence of cysteine (Cys) plays an essential role in protein behaviour. This study analysed the role of Cys in modulating the stability and kinetic properties of IcSOD. To investigate the significance of the dimeric structure in modulating...
