Figure 10

Left hand panel shows the surface of MnSOD dimer defined by a probe atom of radius 1.4 Å and colored according to electrostatic potential (blue, positive; red, negative; extremes of color correspond to 12kT), created by PyMol (PDB ID: 1VEW). The arrows from ONOO- and •CO3- follow the substrate access channel to the active site. Right hand panel shows nitration of Tyr34 in the active site; the active site manganese is shown as a purple sphere, red sphere denotes oxygen of the OH- coordinated to the active site manganese. cf. reference 45.
