![Like a vacuum cleaner, electrostatic forces found on the surface of the human manganese superoxide dismutase active site funnel (blue positively charged vectors) draw in the negatively charged superoxide (O2•-) to the manganese metal. The superoxide is destroyed and the oxidative damage associated with aging and disease is prevented. The Borgstahl group at UNMC has revealed the unusual biochemistry that make this happen.](https://www.unmc.edu/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Borgstahlcover.jpg)
