Figure 1
High-resolution crystal structure of OvEC-SOD. (a) Topology diagram of the protein and its secondary structure. (b) Superposition of O. volvulus SOD (green) with T. solium SOD (pink; PDB entry 3mnd; Cα r.m.s.d. of 0.5 Å; Hernández-Santoyo et al., 2011BB77) and H. sapiens SOD (purple); PDB entry 1hl4; Cα r.m.s.d. of 0.5 Å; Strange et al., 2003BB79). (c) Cartoon and surface representation of the crystallographic OvEC-SOD dimer. The approximate position of the active site as highlighted in (d) is framed. (d) Close-up of the active site and the two conserved metal ions. The coordination distances are shown in Å.
