Cloning and Expression of Superoxide Dismutase Gene Encoded by Spotoptera exigua Multi Nucleopolyhedrovirus
Abstract: Abstract:Superoxide dismutases scavenge superoxide radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress sod gene of Spotoptera exigua Multi Nucleopoleohedrovirus(SeMNPV)from China has been cloned an d expressed in E.coli with the activity of SOD being 29 1.1 9U,mL.DNA sequence an alysis showed mat sod gene of SeMNPv encoded 1 5 1 amino acids.The sequences homology between SeMNPv sod gene an d human sodl gene was 50% ,an d 64% between SeM NPV an d LdNPV,63% be tw e n SeM an d HaSNPV,HcNPV,BmNPV,65% between SeMNPv and AcNPV
