Amino acid sequence of copper,zinc-superoxide dismutase from spinach leaves. 1986

Y Kitagawa, and S Tsunasawa, and N Tanaka, and Y Katsube, and F Sakiyama, and K Asada

The complete amino acid sequence of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) from spinach leaves has been determined on the basis of peptides obtained by cyanogen bromide (BrCN) cleavage and by enzymic hydrolyses with Achromobacter lyticus lysylendopeptidase, Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, trypsin, and thermolysin. The spinach SOD consists of a total of 154 amino acid residues with alanine as the amino(N)-terminus and valine as the carboxy(C-)terminus. The present sequence, which has been established for the enzyme from a plant, is also highly homologous to those of the enzymes from other species. Especially, the residues essential for metal binding and enzyme activity have been extensively conserved among all of the Cu,Zn-SODs hitherto analyzed.

D010944 Plants Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of kingdom Plantae. Plants acquired chloroplasts by direct endosymbiosis of CYANOBACTERIA. They are characterized by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localized regions of cell divisions (MERISTEMS); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absence of nervous and sensory systems; and an alternation of haploid and diploid generations. It is a non-taxonomical term most often referring to LAND PLANTS. In broad sense it includes RHODOPHYTA and GLAUCOPHYTA along with VIRIDIPLANTAE. Plant

D003488 Cyanogen Bromide Cyanogen bromide (CNBr). A compound used in molecular biology to digest some proteins and as a coupling reagent for phosphoroamidate or pyrophosphate internucleotide bonds in DNA duplexes. Bromide, Cyanogen
D004175 Diptera An order of the class Insecta. Wings, when present, number two and distinguish Diptera from other so-called flies, while the halteres, or reduced hindwings, separate Diptera from other insects with one pair of wings. The order includes the families Calliphoridae, Oestridae, Phoridae, SARCOPHAGIDAE, Scatophagidae, Sciaridae, SIMULIIDAE, Tabanidae, Therevidae, Trypetidae, CERATOPOGONIDAE; CHIRONOMIDAE; CULICIDAE; DROSOPHILIDAE; GLOSSINIDAE; MUSCIDAE; TEPHRITIDAE; and PSYCHODIDAE.

D005399 Fishes A group of cold-blooded, aquatic vertebrates having gills, fins, a cartilaginous or bony endoskeleton, and elongated bodies covered with scales.
D006736 Horses Large, hoofed mammals of the family EQUIDAE. Horses are active day and night with most of the day spent seeking and consuming food. Feeding peaks occur in the early morning and late afternoon, and there are several daily periods of rest.
