A radioimmune assay for human cupro-zinc superoxide dismutase and its application to erythrocytes

A competition radioimmunoassay for human superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) is described. Radioiodinated SOD-1 is incubated with unlabeled competitor and limiting antibody, then immune complexes are isolated using Staphylococcus aureus. The assay is sensitive (detecting 5 ng enzyme) and reproducible. Aver...

Zusammenfassung:A competition radioimmunoassay for human superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) is described. Radioiodinated SOD-1 is incubated with unlabeled competitor and limiting antibody, then immune complexes are isolated using Staphylococcus aureus. The assay is sensitive (detecting 5 ng enzyme) and reproducible. Average values for SOD-1 in lysates of erythrocytes from normal individuals is 854 ± 100 ng/mg hemoglobin and that of patients with trisomy-21 is 1313 ± 110 ng/mg hemoglobin.
