  • The first line of antioxidant defense against reactive oxygen species includes the enzymatic activity of the superoxide dismutase (SOD) that catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide to hydrogen peroxide and water. The SOD mainly removes highly toxic $O_2$$^{[-10]}$ and also prevents $O_2$$^{[-10]}$ mediated reduction of iron and subsequent OH$^{[-10]}$ generation. Along with an interest in SOD as a first line of defense against damage mediated by the superoxide anion, the SOD1 enzyme has been subjected to investigation in the molecular and cellular level.

  • Actively growin Excherichia coli(KCTC 1039) cells were treated with paraquat (1, 1'-dimethyl-4, 4'-bipyridili-um dichloride) by cultivating them in the presence of 1.0mM paraquat. The treatment was carried out with or without shaking to understand the effect of oxygen on paraquat action to thebacterial superoxide dismutase (SOd). By the treatment with vigorous shaking , population growth of the organism almostly stopped and specific activities of SOD of the cells drastically decreased. On contrast ot it, the herbicide showed only l limited inhibitory action on bacterial growth and SOD activity by stationary treatment. Proteins prepared from parquat-treated cells divided into two peaks by Sephacryl column chormatogrpahy, while proteins from the intact cells formed a single peak. Cytoplasmic proteins and plasma membrane proteins of intact cells formed separated three peaks by Sephadex G-75 column chormatography. respectively. Among them the second peak disappeared by paraquat treatment , while the third peak became more apparent. Fractions from the first and the third peak showed SOD activity. Paraquat was detected from the same fractions.

  • The nonenzymatic glycation of copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) led to inactivation and fragmentation of the enzyme. The glycated Cu,zn-SOD was isolated by boronate affinity chromatography. The formation of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) in calf thymus DNA and the generation of strand breaks in pBhiescript plasmid DNA by a metal-catalyzed oxidation (MCO) system composed of $Fe^{3+}$, $O_2$, and glutathione (GSH) as an electron donor was enhanced more effectively by the glycated CU,Zn-SOD than by the nonglycated enzyme. The capacity of glycated Cu,Zn-SOD to enhance damage to DNA was inhibited by diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DETAPAC), azide, mannitol, and catalase. These results indicated that incubation of glycated CU,Zn-SOD with GSH-MCO may result in a release of $Cu^{2+}$ from the enzyme. The released $Cu^{2+}$ then likely participated in a Fenton-type reaction to produce hydroxyl radicals, which may cause the enhancement of DNA damage.

  • A human Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD) was fused with a Tat PTD of HIV-1 to produce a novel anti-aging ingredient, Tat-SOD for cosmeceuticals. Test of stability and evaluation of transduction efficacy and enzymatic activity suggest Tat-SOD is an effective active ingredient for anti-aging treatment.

  • This research employed a senescence-accelerated mouse(SAM) to explore the possibility that differences exist among the major antioxidatns, lipid peroxidation in terms of ability to protect such animal treatment PQ, SAM-R/1 and SAM-P/8 were administered with PQ(200ppm/Kg) orally. The toxicity of PQ on SAM was determined as a bioassays of SOD, catalase and lipid peroxidation in the mouse liver. The data show that the SOD activity was induced by paraqwuat terement in both SAM-R/1 and SAM-P/8. The degree of lipid peroxidation was increased with PQ treatment. This means that SOD rather than catalase may protect against oxygen radical toxicity. Finally, over data lead to the toxicity of PQ and its function may efect to the antioxidants including SOD, catalase and lipid peroxidation in both SAM-R/1 and SAM-P/8 .

  • The covalent conjugation of human recombinant superoxide dismutase (hrSOD) with trichloros-triazine activated polyethylene glycol (PEG) 5000 formed soluble conjugates with molecular weight of 92KD, which retained $90{\sim}98%$ of original activity with a markedly prolonged plasma half-life of enzyme activity. The effect of hrSOD-PEG conjugates on acetaminophen (ACP)-induced hepatotoxicity was tested in male rats which were pretreated with 3-methylcholanthrene. HrSOD-PEG conjugates inhibited the hepatotoxicity produced by ACP, on the other hand, native hrSOD had no protective effect. The above results indicated that oxygen radicals might participate in the mechanism of the ACP-induced hepatotoxicity and that polymer conjugated-protein drugs with prolonged half-lives could be employed as an effective therapeutic agent.

  • In order to optimize the carrot hairy root culture for SOD production, a fed-batch culture of hairy roots was performed in a bioreactor. Maximum SOD activity was obtained when the hairy roots were transferred to the MS medium containing 110 g/1 concentration of sucrose. By controlling the sucrose concentration (70 g/1 sucrose for growth and 110 g/1 sucrose far production, respectively) In a two-stage fed-batch culture, 29 g/1 of the hairy roots was obtained based on the final dry mass. The volumetrically determined SOD activity and productivity in the fed-batch culture were about 6 times higher than those from the flask culture containing sucrose at 30 g/1 concentration.

  • The heterologous expression of sodN gene from Streptomyces seoulensis in Streptomyces lividans together with the gel filtration and sedimentation equilibrim data indicated that the quaternary structure of NiSOD is homohexamer, which is novel among SODs, not the previously reported homotetramer. The EPR spectrum of $^{61}$ Ni (I = 3/2) substituted NiSOD showed a clear resolved hyperfine structure at g=2.016, unambiguously identifying that the EPR signal from NiSOD is due to Ni.(omitted)

  • Over-expression of a copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/ZnSOD) resulted in substantially increased tolerance to cadmium exposure in Arabidopsis thaliana. Lower lipid peroxidation and $H_2O_2$ accumulation and the higher activities of $H_2O_2$ scavenging enzymes, including catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in transformants (CuZnSOD-tr) compared to untransformed controls (wt) indicated that oxidative stress was the key factor in cadmium tolerance. Although progressive reductions in the dark-adapted photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) and quantum efficiency yield were observed with increasing cadmium levels, the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were less marked in CuZnSOD-tr than in wi. These observations indicate that oxidative stress in the photosynthetic apparatus is a principal cause of Cd-induced phytotoxicity, and that Cu/ZnSOD plays a critical role in protection against Cd-induced oxidative stress.

  • The fabrication process of silicon-diamond(SOD) structure wafer were studied. Microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MWPCVD) and annealing technology were used to synthesize diamond film with high resistivity and thermal conductivity. Bonding and etchback silicon-on-diamond (BESOD) were utilized to form supporting substrate and single silicon thin layer of SOD wafer. At last, a SOD structure wafer with 0.3~1$\mu\textrm{m}$ silicon film and 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ diamond film was prepared. The characteristics of radiation for a CMOS integrated circuit (IC) fabricated by SOD wafer were studied.
