Abstract excerpt
Molecular genetic studies of extracellular-superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) have shown that individuals with high serum EC-SOD content have a single base substitution generating the exchange of glycine for arginine-213 (R213G) in the heparin-binding domain of this enzyme [Sandström, J. et al. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 19163-19166], which causes the impairment of its binding ability to endothelial cell surface...
