Several isoforms of superoxide dismutase (SOD) with a high
isoelectric point (pI) have been identified by isoelectric focusing chromatography in protein extracts from Scots pine (Pinus
sylvestris) needles. One of these isoforms, a CuZn-SOD with a
pI of about 10 and thus denoted hipI-SOD, has been isolated and
purified to apparent homogeneity. A cDNA encoding the hipI-SOD
protein was cloned and sequenced. Northern hybridization of mRNA
isolated from different organs and tissues showed that hipI-SOD has a
markedly different pattern of expression compared with chloroplastic
and cytosolic SOD. Furthermore, the transcript levels of hipI-SOD and
cytosolic SOD were found to respond differently to mechanical wounding,
treatment with oxidized glutathione, paraquat, and ozone. Immunogold
electron microscopy localized the hipI-SOD in the plasma membrane of
sieve cells and the Golgi apparatus of albuminous cells. Moreover, high
protein density was also detected in extracellular spaces such as
secondary cell wall thickenings of the xylem and sclerenchyma and in
intercellular spaces of parenchyma cells.
