Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1)
SOD1 is one of three oxidoreductase enzymes that is responsible for binding copper and zinc ions to highly reactive oxygen free radicals and transforming them into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide [1]. This protein is coded for by the SOD 1 gene located on chromosome 21 at position 21q22.1 from base pairs 33,031,934 to 33,041,243 [2].
Structure
The SOD 1 protein has an amino acid sequence of 154 AA.
