Abstract
A cDNA encoding manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) has been cloned and sequenced from Drosophila melanogastel. This 805-bp complete cDNA carries a single open reading frame which specifies a deduced 217-ami no-acid (aa) protein with an average identitiy of 60.8% with deduced M nSOD aa sequences from Caenorabditis elegans and humans.
