Familial Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Mutants of Copper/Zinc Superoxide Dismutase Are Susceptible to Disulfide Reduction

Abstract

We observed that 14 biologically metallated mutants of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) associated with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis all exhibited aberrantly accelerated mobility during partially denaturing PAGE and increased sensitivity to proteolytic digestion compared with wild type SOD1. Decreased metal binding site occupancy and exposure to the disulfide-reducing agents dithiothreitol, Tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP), or reduced glutathione increased the fraction of anomalously migrating mutant SOD1 proteins. Furthermore, the incubation of mutant SOD1s with TCEP increased the accessibility to iodoacetamide of cysteine residues that normally participate in the formation of the intrasubunit disulfide bond (Cys-57 to Cys-146) or are buried within the core of the beta-barrel (Cys-6). SOD1 enzymes in spinal cord lysates from G85R and G93A mutant but not wild type SOD1 transgenic mice also exhibited abnormal vulnerability to TCEP, which exposed normally inaccessible cysteine residues to modification by maleimide conjugated to polyethylene glycol. These results implicate SOD1 destabilization under cellular disulfide-reducing conditions at physiological pH and temperature as a shared property that may be relevant to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mutant neurotoxicity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
