Abstract excerpt
Cu,Zn superoxide dismutases (SODs) have been purified to homogeneity from the two varieties of Cryptococcus neoformans, C. neoformans var. neoformans and var. gattii. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of the two enzymes were similar, though not identical, and demonstrated homology with Cu,Zn SODs from other organisms. SOD activity was present in supernatants from stationary-phase cultures of isolates of C....
