The discovery of superoxide dismutase twenty years ago gave new meaning to work on erythrocuprein. This tribute to the achievement of Joe McCord and Irwin Fridovich is an account of experience of superoxide dismutase from old obscure copper protein of red blood cells to new exciting enzyme of oxygen free-radical metabolism, and an affirmation of the superoxide theory of oxygen toxicity.
二十年前超氧化物歧化酶的发现赋予了对红细胞铜蛋白研究新的意义。这是对乔·麦考德和欧文·弗里多维奇成就的致敬，讲述了超氧化物歧化酶从红细胞中一种鲜为人知的古老铜蛋白发展成为氧自由基代谢中令人兴奋的新酶的历程，也是对氧毒性超氧化物理论的肯定。
