Abstract excerpt
Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and is therefore considered to be an important ALS drug target. Identifying potential drug leads that bind to SOD1 and characterizing their interactions by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is complicated by the fact that SOD1 is a homodimer. Creating a monomeric version of SOD1 could...
