Superoxide Dismutase: A Key Enzyme for the Survival of Intracellular Pathogens in Host
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a crucial enzyme required to maintain the redox potential of the cells. It plays a vital role in protecting normal cells from reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during many intracellular pathogens infections. SOD removes excess superoxide radicals (O2−) by convertin...
