Two electrophoretically distinct forms of superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) which show different inhibition patterns to hydrogen peroxide have been identified in Azotobacter vinelandii. The SOD inhibited by hydrogen peroxide was purified to homogeneity, and turned out to be an iron superoxide dismutase. The enzyme is present in only one molecular form with an isoelectric point of 4.1, and it is composed of two identical subunits with an apparent molecular weight of 21,000 Da. Spectroscopic analyses indicated that this enzyme contains ferric iron (1.4-1.6 mol/mol protein) in the typical high-spin form present in other prokaryotic Fe-SODs. N-Terminal sequence alignments (up to the 49th residue) showed that A. vinelandii Fe-SOD has high similarity with other prokaryotic Fe-SODs.
