Biological function summary
The enzyme functions as a homodimer with each subunit containing a copper and zinc ion. These metal ions are essential for the catalytic activity of SOD1 as the copper ion participates in electron transfer while the zinc ion provides structural stability. The enzyme protects cells from oxidative stress by neutralizing excess reactive oxygen species ensuring cellular health and functioning.
Pathways
SOD1 plays an important role in the cellular antioxidant defense system and is a part of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolic pathway. It works in conjunction with catalase and glutathione peroxidase to limit oxidative damage within cells. The close interaction between these enzymes highlights the interdependence within the antioxidant defense network emphasizing their role in maintaining cellular homeostasis.

Post-translational modifications
Unlike wild-type protein, the pathogenic variants ALS1 Arg-38, Arg-47, Arg-86 and Ala-94 are polyubiquitinated by RNF19A leading to their proteasomal degradation. The pathogenic variants ALS1 Arg-86 and Ala-94 are ubiquitinated by MARCH5 leading to their proteasomal degradation.. The ditryptophan cross-link at Trp-33 is responsible for the non-disulfide-linked homodimerization. Such modification might only occur in extreme conditions and additional experimental evidence is required.. Palmitoylation helps nuclear targeting and decreases catalytic activity.. Succinylation, adjacent to copper catalytic site, probably inhibits activity. Desuccinylation by SIRT5 enhances activity.
