Abstract
► Reactive oxygen species are important precursors for DNA glycation in vitro. ► Primary embryonic fibroblasts were obtained from mutant mice deficient in MnSOD. ► Mitochondrial DNA glycation is increased in Sod2−/+ compared to Sod2+/+ fibroblasts. ► Nuclear DNA glycation is not affected by MnSOD deficiency. ► MnSOD deficiency does not influence glycation or oxidation of cytosolic proteins.
