Molecular dynamic simulations of Ef-SODs. The flexibility of Ef-SODs was evaluated using the RMSF profile. Simulations were carried out at 4 °C (red) and 27 °C (black) for Ef-SOD1a (A), Ef-SOD1b (B) and Ef-SOD2 (C). In Ef-SOD1s residues belonging to the Z-Loop and the E-Loop are highlighted in yellow and blue lines, respectively. In Ef-SOD2 residues belonging to α1 and α2 are highlighted in light blue lines. Loops with different flexibility at the tested temperatures are indicated.
