Duarte Mota de Freitas and Joan S. Valentine* abstract: The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of bovine copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD) in 50 mM Hepes [4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-l-piperazineethanesulfonic acid], pH 7.4, was decreased by approximately 50% when the solu-tion was made 10 mM in phosphate, in spite of the fact that the ionic strength of both solutions was adjusted to be equal. A similar experiment was carried out with bovine Cu, Zn-SOD chemically modified at Arg-141 with phenylglyoxal, which consequently had approximately 20% of the activity of the unmodified protein.(This activity was shown not to be due to residual unmodified protein.) Addition of 10 mM phosphate to solutions of the modified protein caused only a small de-crease (< 5%) in the SOD activity. The presence of phosphate also caused the affinity ofCu, Zn-SOD for binding azide or cyanide anions to be reduced; this effect of phosphate was also much less for the arginine-modified protein. We conclude that
