Manganese and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD2)

  • Yes, manganese plays an essential role in the structure and function of superoxide dismutase (SOD2).
  • SOD2 is specifically known as manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), which is located inside the mitochondria of cells.
  • The enzyme requires manganese as an essential cofactor to effectively neutralize harmful superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.
  • An adequate balance of manganese is therefore crucial for cellular antioxidant defense and protecting the mitochondria from oxidative stress.
