Catalytic and Structural Effects of Amino-Acid Substitution at His30 in Human Manganese Superoxide Dismutase

Disease

[SODM_HUMAN] Genetic variation in SOD2 is associated with susceptibility to microvascular complications of diabetes type 6 (MVCD6) [MIM:612634]. These are pathological conditions that develop in numerous tissues and organs as a consequence of diabetes mellitus. They include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage renal disease, and diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic retinopathy remains the major cause of new-onset blindness among diabetic adults. It is characterized by vascular permeability and increased tissue ischemia and angiogenesis.

Function

[SODM_HUMAN] Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems.[1]
