| Application: | Anti-SOD2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige . |

| Biochem/physiol Actions: | SOD2 (superoxide dismutase 2) is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein associated with the mitochondrial pathway for detoxification of O2-.It generates nontoxic products by converting reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl radicals which are produced as byproducts of normal cellular metabolism. Firstly, it alters superoxide to hydrogen peroxide and oxygen. In the next stage, peroxiredoxins and catalase enzyme convert hydrogen peroxide to molecular oxygen and water. It is essential for maintaining integrity of mitochondrial enzymes which are susceptible to direct inactivation by superoxide. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
