NUPR1: A Critical Regulator of the Antioxidant System [PDF]
Nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1) is a small intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) activated in response to various types of cellular stress, including endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and oxidative stress. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are mainly produced during mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, and directly impact redox homeostasis and oxidative stress ...

Transcriptome and biochemical analyses of glutathione-dependent regulation of tomato fruit ripening
Delay the ripening can improve fruit shelf life. Reduced glutathione (GSH) is an antioxidant that delays the ripening of fruits, though the GSH-mediated mechanism involved in fruit-ripening processes is currently unclear.

The role of thiols in antioxidant systems [PDF]
The sulfur biochemistry of the thiol group endows cysteines with a number of highly specialized and unique features that enable them to serve a variety of different functions in the cell. Typically highly conserved in proteins, cysteines are predominantly found in functionally or structurally crucial regions, where they act as stabilizing, catalytic ...
