Copper, zinc superoxide dismutase was isolated from human red blood cell hemolysate by DEAE-Sepharose and copper chelate affinity chromatography. Enzyme preparations had specific activities ranging from 3400 to 3800 U/mg and recoveries were approximately 60% of the enzyme activity in the lysate. Cop
Bamboo is distinguished by its rapid growth, for growth more than 100 cm per day. Because of the rapid growth, tissues have significant ATP requirements, which results in intense reduction of oxygen and thus oxidative stress. For this reason, bamboo may have a special and efficient scavenger system
## Abstract The demonstration of a genetic linkage between the copperβzinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene and familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis has aroused interest in the role of SOD1 in motoneuronal death. We investigated the expression of the human SOD1 gene at a cellular level in the mot
