Also known as IPOA
Summary
SOD1 (superoxide dismutase 1, HGNC:11179) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 21q22.11, encoding Superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] (P00441). Destroys radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 97.6% of cancer cell lines).
The protein encoded by this gene binds copper and zinc ions and is one of two isozymes responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally-occuring but harmful superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The other isozyme is a mitochondrial protein. In addition, this protein contains an antimicrobial peptide that displays antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-MRSA activity against E. coli, E. faecalis, S. aureus, S. aureus MRSA LPV+, S. agalactiae, and yeast C. krusei. Mutations in this gene have been implicated as causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rare transcript variants have been reported for this gene.

Superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] — P00441 (reviewed: P00441)
Alternative names: Hydrogen sulfide oxidase, Superoxide dismutase 1

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Destroys radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. Catalyzes the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to sulfate, playing an important role in detoxifying H2S and limiting the accumulation of reactive sulfur species (RSS) such as persulfides and polysulfides.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer; non-disulfide-linked. Homodimerization may take place via the ditryptophan cross-link at Trp-33. Heterodimer with SOD1. The heterodimer CCS:SOD1 interacts with SLC31A1; this heterotrimer is Cu(1+)-mediated and its maintenance is regulated through SOD1 activation. Interacts with DAOA; the interaction is direct.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Post-translational modifications. Unlike wild-type protein, the pathogenic variants ALS1 Arg-38, Arg-47, Arg-86 and Ala-94 are polyubiquitinated by RNF19A leading to their proteasomal degradation. The pathogenic variants ALS1 Arg-86 and Ala-94 are ubiquitinated by MARCH5 leading to their proteasomal degradation. The ditryptophan cross-link at Trp-33 is responsible for the non-disulfide-linked homodimerization. Such modification might only occur in extreme conditions and additional experimental evidence is required. Palmitoylation helps nuclear targeting and decreases catalytic activity. Succinylation, adjacent to copper catalytic site, probably inhibits activity. Desuccinylation by SIRT5 enhances activity.
Disease relevance. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 1 (ALS1) [MIM:105400] A neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5-10% of the cases. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Spastic tetraplegia and axial hypotonia, progressive (STAHP) [MIM:618598] An autosomal recessive, neurologic disorder characterized by loss of motor abilities in the first year of life, after which severe, progressive spastic tetraparesis develops. Affected individuals have severe axial hypotonia, hyperekplexia, hypertonia, and myokymia, reflecting upper motor neuron involvement. Cognitive development may be affected. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Cofactor. Binds 1 copper ion per subunit. Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.
Miscellaneous. The protein (both wild-type and ALS1 variants) has a tendency to form fibrillar aggregates in the absence of the intramolecular disulfide bond or of bound zinc ions. These aggregates may have cytotoxic effects. Zinc binding promotes dimerization and stabilizes the native form.
Similarity. Belongs to the Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 90 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
