General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function enzyme overexpression makes cells more resistant to H2O2 (oxidative stress), 2-deoxyglucose (metabolic stress), rotenone and antimycin A (energetic stress), and lactacystin (proteotoxic stress), but does not protect cells against H2O2 and serum withdrawal. Overexpression of the enzyme induces higher mitochondrial functions such as ATP production rate, oxygen consumption rate, and activities of complexes I and II, without formation of further reactive oxygen species, consistent with lower levels of oxidative/nitrative damage and resistance to apoptotic cell death Homo sapiens
