Abstract We have isolated and determined the nucleotide sequence of the structural gene
(sodB) coding for one of the copper/zinc-superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD)
isozymes from rice plants (Oryza sativa L.). The sodB gene is split into 8 exons
spread about 2 kb of the chromosomal DNA, with the coding sequence beginning in
the 2nd and ending in the 8th. Although none of sodB introns are inserted into
similar positions in Cu/Zn-SOD genes from other sources, four of six introns in
the protein-coding region are located at discriminating positions within
structural domains of the protein. Genomic Southern analysis indicated that
cytosolic Cu/Zn-SOD is coded for by 2-3 genes in the rice genome.
