Biological function

SOD2 is the mitochondrial manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase that converts superoxide radicals to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen, providing a central mitochondrial antioxidant defense against reactive oxygen species.

Research context

SOD2 is commonly studied in mitochondrial redox biology, oxidative stress, metabolism, aging and stress-response models. ABMIUM research products associated with SOD2 can support studies of protein abundance and localization; confirm species, application, sample type and product-level validation before use.
