Nickel-containing superoxide dismutase
Nickel containing superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) is a metalloenzyme containing a hexameric assembly of right-handed 4-helix bundles of up-down-up-down topology with an N-terminal His-Cys-X-X-Pro-Cys-Gly-X-Tyr motif that chelates the active site Ni ions. NiSOD catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide to peroxide and molecular oxygen through alternate oxidation and reduction of Ni, protecting cells from the toxic products of aerobic metabolism.
