Abstract: We explore the embedding of Spin groups of arbitrary dimension and signature into simple superalgebras in the case of extended supersymmetry. The R-symmetry, which generically is not compact, can be chosen compact for all the cases that are congruent mod 8 to the physical conformal algebra so($D-2$,2), $Dgeq3$. An $mso(1,1)$ grading of the superalgebra is found in all cases. Central extensions of super translation algebras are studied in this framework.
