TL;DR: It was shown that pamoic acid did not at all inhibit superoxide dismutase but rather diminished the sensitivity of the assays, and the mechanism proposed to account for this effect involved oxidation of pamoate, by O2−, to yield a pamoates radical which can then reduce cytochrome c or oxidize pyrogallol.

TL;DR: The effect of alloxan appeared paradoxical in that it increased cyanide-resistant respiration without significantly increasing the cell content of the manganese-superoxide dismutase and with only a small effect on the level of catalase. (via Semantic Scholar)

TL;DR: The alkaline phosphatase activities of five unique isolates of marine bacteria were found to be associated with the periplasmic space; however, the enzymes from these isolates differed with respect to their repressibility, the apparent number of isoenzymes, the necessity for Mg2 for activity, and the conditions required for their release.

TL;DR: Anaerobically grown Escherichia coli K-12 cells showed a much greater oxygen enhancement of the lethality of streptonigrin than did aerobically growing cells, in accord with the proposal that streptonigratedin can serve as an intracellular source of superoxide. (via Semantic Scholar)

MeSH headings : Cyclic AMP / metabolism; Enzyme Repression; Escherichia coli / enzymology; Escherichia coli / metabolism; Fermentation; Glucose / metabolism; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Methylglucosides / pharmacology; Paraquat / pharmacology; Superoxide Dismutase / biosynthesis
TL;DR: It appears likely that superoxide dismutase is controlled directly or indirectly by the intracellular level of O2- and that glucose depressed the level of this enzyme because glucose metabolism is not associated with as rapid a production of O 2- as is the metabolsim of many other substances.

TL;DR: It seems likely that paraquat subverts a portion of the normal, cyanide-sensitive, electron flow in the cells and transfers that electron flow to oxygen, in an increased rate of intracellular production of O,-, then induces or derepresses the biosynthesis of the manganese-superoxide dismutase, which defends the cell against the deleterious reactivities of this radical.
