Abstract

Human copper-cobalt superoxide dismutase in the reduced form has been investigated through 1H NMR techniques. The aim is to monitor the structural properties of this derivative and to compare them with those of reduced and oxidized native superoxide dismutases. The observed signals of the cobalt ligands have been assigned as well as the signals of the histidines bound to copper(I). The latter signals experience little pseudocontact shifts which allow a rough orientation of the magnetic susceptibility tensor in the molecular frame. The connectivities indicate that, although the histidine bridge is broken in the reduced form, the interproton distances between ligands of both ions are essentially the same.
