Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsod-3 encodes a iron/manganese superoxide dismutase, predicted to be mitochondrial, that might defend against oxidative stress and promote normal lifespan; sod-3 mRNA levels are diminished by mutation of daf-16 and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) studies demonstrate that DAF-16 can directly bind the sod-3 promoter; heterologously expressed SOD-3 in E. coli protects against methyl viologen-induced oxidative stress.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00002936

Automated_descriptionEnables protein homodimerization activity and superoxide dismutase activity. Involved in removal of superoxide radicals. Located in mitochondrial respirasome. Expressed in several structures, including head; intestine; pharynx; tail; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); and hematologic cancer (multiple). Is an ortholog of human SOD2 (superoxide dismutase 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (446)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
