➤ Is selenium involved in superoxide dismutase function?
No. Selenium is not a cofactor for superoxide dismutase. Instead, selenium is essential for selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidases and thioredoxin reductases, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides and help maintain cellular redox balance downstream of SOD activity.
