Cysteine and Cysteine-Related Signaling Pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Molecular Plant, 2014 Cysteine occupies a central position in plant metabolism because it is a reduced sulfur donor molecule involved in the synthesis of essential biomolecules and defense compounds. Moreover, cysteine per se and its derivative molecules play roles in the redox signaling of processes occurring in various cellular compartments. Cysteine is synthesized during

Zinc-Binding Cysteines: Diverse Functions and Structural Motifs
Biomolecules, 2014 Cysteine residues are known to perform essential functions within proteins, including binding to various metal ions. In particular, cysteine residues can display high affinity toward zinc ions (Zn2+), and these resulting Zn2+-cysteine complexes are ...

50 shades of oxidative stress: A state-specific cysteine redox pattern hypothesis
Redox Biology, 2023 Oxidative stress is biochemically complex. Like primary colours, specific reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant inputs can be mixed to create unique “shades” of oxidative stress.
