SOD1 binds copper and zinc ions and is one of three superoxide dismutases responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic and mitochondrial intermembrane space protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally occurring, but harmful, superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.
SOD1 is an extremely stable protein. In the holo form (both copper and zinc bound) the melting point is > 90 °C. In the apo form (no copper or zinc bound) the melting point is ~60 °C. [26] By differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), holo SOD1 unfolds by a two-state mechanism: from dimer to two unfolded monomers. [26]
In the human SOD1 enzyme (N-terminus = blue, C-terminus = red), the copper (orange sphere) and zinc (grey one) are bridged by imidazolate. [3] Imidazolate is a common bridging ligand in coordination chemistry. In the zeolitic imidazolate frameworks, the metals are interconnected via imidazolates.

The United States and European allies have rallied around Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression, supplying the country with a huge amount of military aide.
They also blend well into dips and can be used to thicken soup– though I personally think they shine most when left whole. Gateway dish: Creamy Tuscan White Beans Protein count: 7 grams per ½ cup
Superoxide dismutase 2, mitochondrial (SOD2), also known as manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the SOD2 gene on chromosome 6.
“When we see each other, which is few and far between, because we’re not in the same circles, it’s all love,” Davidson said
