Cells, 2023 L-γ-Glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine is commonly referred to as glutathione (GSH); this ubiquitous thiol plays essential roles in animal life. Conjugation and electron donation to enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase (GPX) are prominent functions of GSH ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Image_1_L-Cysteine-Derived H2S Promotes Microglia M2 Polarization via Activation of the AMPK Pathway in Hypoxia-Ischemic Neonatal Mice.TIF [PDF]
, 2019 We have reported previously that L-cysteine-derived hydrogen sulfide (H2S) demonstrates a remarkable neuroprotective effect against hypoxia-ischemic (HI) insult in neonatal animals.

Journal of the Chemical Society C: Organic, 1970 A new method for the preparation of S-trityl-(i.e. triphenylmethyl) and S-diphenylmethyl-cysteines or -cysteine peptides involves treatment of cysteine or cysteine peptides with aralkylcarbinols in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid or hydrogen halides in acetic acid solution.

Identification of the plant mitochondrial OrfX protein: A mass spectrometry approach
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The mitochondrial genome of plants contains an open reading frame, orfx, which encodes a rare protein that has so far escaped mass spectrometric detection. The protein resembles the c‐subunit of bacterial twin‐arginine‐motif‐dependent protein translocases (TatC).

Characterisation of the yeast Nfs1/Isd11 cysteine desulphurase complex [PDF]
, 2010 PhDSmall inorganic assemblies of alternating ferrous/ferric iron and sulphide ions, so-called iron–sulphur (Fe–S) clusters, are probably nature‟s most ancient prosthetic groups.

Thiol trapping and metabolic redistribution of sulfur metabolites enable cells to overcome cysteine overload [PDF]
, 2017 Cysteine is an essential requirement in living organisms. However, due to its reactive thiol side chain, elevated levels of intracellular cysteine can be toxic and therefore need to be rapidly eliminated from the cellular milieu.
