Fig. 3From: Arabidopsis thaliana alternative dehydrogenases: a potential therapy for mitochondrial complex I deficiency? Perspectives and pitfallsAssessment of SOD activity: Spectrophotometric assessment of SOD activity according to the pyrogallol autoxidation method. NDUFS4 mutated cell line (79787) displays higher SOD activity when compared to control fibroblasts (NHDF). Transfection with AtNDB4 and AtNDA2 (79787-AtNDB4 and 79,787-AtNDA2) significantly decreases SOD activity, which is nearly restored to normal levels. Values are expressed as means ± SD (ns: not significant; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01)Back to article page
