Immunogen: overexpressed Arabidopsis thaliana Cu/ZnSOD O78310, At2g28190 with an N-terminal His-tag. Purified via Ni-column. The His-tag was cleaved and the protein was recovered via ion exchange on a 10 ml resource-Q (Pharmacia) column using a NaCl gradient. Pure fractions after dialysis against PBS has been used for immunization.
Host: Rabbit
Clonality: Polyclonal
Purity: Serum
Format: Lyophilized
Quantity: 50 µl
Reconstitution: For reconstitution add 50 µl of sterile water
Storage: Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
Antioxidant system works as a defense against oxidative stress. SOD (superoxide dismutase) catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide into oxygen and H202,. SODs are classified, according to their metal cofactor, as FeSOD, MnSOD, or Cu / ZnSOD. Chloroplasts generally contain Cu/ZnSOD and, in a number of plant species, FeSOD
