Bacterial Cysteine-Inducible Cysteine Resistance Systems [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2016 ABSTRACT Cysteine donates sulfur to macromolecules and occurs naturally in many proteins. Because low concentrations of cysteine are cytotoxic, its intracellular concentration is stringently controlled. In bacteria, cysteine biosynthesis is regulated by feedback inhibition of the activities of serine acetyltransferase (SAT) and 3-

Oxidants, Antioxidants and Thiol Redox Switches in the Control of Regulated Cell Death Pathways
Antioxidants, 2020 It is well appreciated that biological reactive oxygen and nitrogen species such as hydrogen peroxide, superoxide and nitric oxide, as well as endogenous antioxidant systems, are important modulators of cell survival and death in diverse organisms and ...

Synthesis, screening, and sequencing of cysteine-rich one-bead one-compound peptide libraries. [PDF]
, 2008 Cysteine-rich peptides are valued as tags for biarsenical fluorophores and as environmentally important reagents for binding toxic heavy metals. Due to the inherent difficulties created by cysteine, the power of one-bead one-compound (OBOC) libraries has

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

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2015 The cysteine (Cys) proteome is a major component of the adaptive interface between the genome and the exposome. The thiol moiety of Cys undergoes a range of biologic modifications enabling biological switching of structure and reactivity. These biological modifications include sulfenylation and disulfide formation, formation of higher oxidation states,

Prebiotic synthesis of cysteine peptides that catalyze peptide ligation in neutral water
Science, 2020 Cysteine as peptide precursor and catalyst Among amino acids, cysteine is highly reactive as a nucleophile, metal ligand, and participant in redox and radical reactions. These properties make cysteine attractive as a component of prebiotic chemistry, but

In vitro and in vivo anthelmintic efficacy of plant cysteine proteinases against the rodent gastrointestinal nematode, Trichuris muris [PDF]
, 2006 We examined the mechanism of action and compared the anthelmintic efficacy of cysteine proteinases from papaya, pineapple, fig, kiwi fruit and Egyptian milkweed in vitro using the rodent gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus.
