Background

The enzymatic function of Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase (SOD1), previously known as hemocuprein and IPOA, was first characterized in 1969. SOD1 is commonly known for its ROS scavenging activity, but recent work has uncovered additional roles in modulating metabolism, maintaining redox balance, and regulating transcription. In disease contexts, SOD1 is best-known for its role in a familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (fALS). In addition, SOD1 is overexpressed in numerous cancer types, including lung adenocarcinoma, non-small-cell lung cancer , and 70% of primary breast cancers .
