Role of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase (3-MST) in Physiology and Disease [PDF]
3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) plays the important role of producing hydrogen sulfide. Conserved from bacteria to Mammalia, this enzyme is localized in mitochondria as well as the cytoplasm. 3-MST mediates the reaction of 3-mercaptopyruvate

Activation of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase by Glutaredoxin Reducing System [PDF]
Glutaredoxin (EC 1.15–1.21) is known as an oxidoreductase that protects cysteine residues within proteins against oxidative stress. Glutaredoxin catalyzes an electron transfer reaction that donates an electron to substrate proteins in the reducing system

Novel Characterization of Antioxidant Enzyme, 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase-Knockout Mice: Overexpression of the Evolutionarily-Related Enzyme Rhodanese [PDF]
The antioxidant enzyme, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MST, EC 2.8.1.2) is localized in the cytosol and mitochondria, while the evolutionarily-related enzyme, rhodanese (thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, TST, EC 2.8.1.1) is localized in the ...

Role of 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase in cancer: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic perspectives [PDF]
The occurrence and development of tumor is mediated by a wide range of complex mechanisms. Subsequent to nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) holds the distinction of being the third identified gasotransmitter.

Regulation of CyR61 expression and release by 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase in colon cancer cells [PDF]
Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (CYR61, also termed CCN family member 1 or CCN1), is a matricellular protein encoded by the CYR61 gene. This protein has been implicated in the regulation of various cancer-associated processes including tumor growth ...

Cysteine Aminotransferase (CAT): A Pivotal Sponsor in Metabolic Remodeling and an Ally of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase (MST) in Cancer [PDF]
Metabolic remodeling is a critical skill of malignant cells, allowing their survival and spread. The metabolic dynamics and adaptation capacity of cancer cells allow them to escape from damaging stimuli, including breakage or cross-links in DNA strands ...

Sulfanegen stimulates 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase activity and ameliorates Alzheimer's disease pathology and oxidative stress in vivo [PDF]
Increased oxidative stress and inflammation are implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Treatment with hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and H2S donors such as sodium hydrosulfide (NaSH) can reduce oxidative stress in preclinical studies, however ...
