Expression of a Hybrid Human Superoxide Dismutase with a High Affinity for Heparin

Superoxide Dismutase Administration: A Review of Proposed Human Uses

Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are metalloenzymes that play a major role in antioxidant defense against oxidative stress in the body. SOD supplementation may therefore trigger the endogenous antioxidant machinery for the neutralization of free-radical excess and be used in a variety of pathological settings. This paper aimed to provide an extensive review of the possible uses of SODs in a range of pathological settings, as well as describe the current pitfalls and the delivery strategies that are in development to solve bioavailability issues. We carried out a PubMed query, using the keywords “SOD”, “SOD mimetics”, “SOD supplementation”, which included papers published in the English language, between 2012 and 2020, on the potential therapeutic applications of SODs, including detoxification strategies. As highlighted in this paper, it can be argued that the generic antioxidant effects of SODs are beneficial under all tested conditions, from ocular and cardiovascular diseases to neurodegenerative disorders and metabolic diseases, including diabetes and its complications and obesity. However, it must be underlined that clinical evidence for its efficacy is limited and consequently, this efficacy is currently far from being demonstrated.

Development of a Functional cis‐Prolyl Bond Biomimetic and Mechanistic Implications for Nickel Superoxide Dismutase

During recent years several peptide‐based Ni superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) models have been developed. These NiSOD models show an important structural difference compared to the native NiSOD enzyme, which could cause a completely different mechanism of superoxide dismutation. In the native enzyme the peptide bond between Leu4 and Pro5 is cis‐configured, while the NiSOD models exhibit a trans‐configured peptide bond between these two residues. To shed light on how the configuration of this single peptide bond influences the activity of the NiSOD model peptides, a new cis‐prolyl bond surrogate was developed. As surrogate we chose a leucine/alanine‐based disubstituted 1,2,3‐triazole, which was incorporated into the NiSOD model peptide replacing residues Leu4 and Pro5. The yielded 1,5‐disubstituted triazole nickel peptide exhibited high SOD activity, which was approximately the same activity as its parent trans‐configured analogue. Hence, the conformation of the prolyl peptide bond apparently has of minor importance for the catalytic activity of the metallopeptides as postulated in literature. Furthermore, it is shown that the triazole metallopeptide is forming a stable cyanide adduct as a substrate analogue model complex.     

New Insight into the Mode of Action of Nickel Superoxide Dismutase by Investigating Metallopeptide Substrate Models

For the first time, the existence of a substrate adduct of a nickel superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) model, based on the first nine residues from the N terminus of the active form of Streptomyces coelicolor NiSOD, has been proven and the adduct has been isolated. This adduct is based on the cyanide anion (CN^?), as a substrate analogue of the superoxide anion (O₂^.?), and the nickel metallopeptide H‐HCDLPCGVY‐NH₂‐Ni. Spectroscopic studies, including IR, UV/Vis, and liquid‐ and solid‐state NMR spectroscopy, show a single nickel‐bound cyanide anion, which is embedded in the metallopeptide structure. This complex sheds new light on the question of whether the mode of action of the NiSOD enzyme is an inner‐ or outer‐sphere mechanism. Whereas discussion was previously biased in favor of an outer‐sphere electron‐transfer mechanism due to the fact that binding of cyanide or azide moieties to the nickel active site had never been observed, our results are a clear indication in favor of the inner‐sphere electron‐transfer mechanism for the disproportionation of the O₂^.? ion, whereby the substrate is attached to the Ni atom in the active site of the NiSOD.
