Abstract

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is considered to have an important role in protecting cells against direct and indirect oxidative damage1–3. Total SOD activity is the result of the activities of a copper dependent enzyme (CuSOD), present primarily in the cytoplasm, and a manganese dependent enzyme(MnSOD), localized in the mitochondrial matrix4 The catalytic activity of CuSOD is inhibited by cyanide and this property is used to distinguish it from MnSOD.5
