  4. Wash three times for 5 min each with 15 ml of TBST.
  5. Proceed with detection (Section D).

D. Detection of Proteins

Directions for Use:

  1. Wash membrane-bound HRP (antibody conjugate) three times for 5 minutes in TBST.
  2. Prepare 1X SignalFire™ ECL Reagent (#6883) by diluting one part 2X Reagent A and one part 2X Reagent B (e.g. for 10 ml, add 5 ml Reagent A and 5 ml Reagent B). Mix well.
  3. Incubate substrate with membrane for 1 minute, remove excess solution (membrane remains wet), wrap in plastic and expose to X-ray film.

Protocol Id: 283

Specificity / Sensitivity

SOD2 (D3X8F) XP® Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total SOD2 protein.

Species Reactivity:

Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human SOD2 protein.

Background

Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD or SOD2) is a mitochondrial detoxification enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of superoxide to hydrogen peroxide (1,2). Hydrogen peroxide is then decomposed to water by catalase, glutathione peroxidase, or peroxiredoxins (2). MnSOD/SOD2 and other enzymes involved in antioxidant defense protect cells from reactive oxygen species (ROS) (2). Calorie restriction leads to SIRT3-mediated deacetylation of MnSOD/SOD2 and the subsequent increase of its antioxidant activity (3). MnSOD/SOD2 also plays an essential role in mediating the protective effect of mTOR inhibition to reduce epithelial stem cell senescence (4).
