Gene
FSD3
Protein
Superoxide dismutase [Fe] 3, chloroplastic
Organism

Length
263 amino acids
Function
Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems (By similarity). Plays important role in chloroplast development, particularly in the maintenance of thylakoids membranes. Seems to act as a heterodimer with FSD2.
Similarity
Belongs to the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family.
