Cystine plug and other novel mechanisms of large mechanical stability in dimeric proteins [PDF]
, 2012 We identify three dimeric proteins whose mechanostability is anisotropic and should exceed 1 nN along some directions. They come with distinct mechanical clamps: shear-based, involving a cystine slipknot, and due to dragging of a cystine plug through a cystine ring.

Cysteine, Glutathione, and Thiol Redox Balance in Astrocytes
Antioxidants, 2017 This review discusses the current understanding of cysteine and glutathione redox balance in astrocytes. Particular emphasis is placed on the impact of oxidative stress and astrocyte activation on pathways that provide cysteine as a precursor for ...

Evaluation and medical management of patients with cystine nephrolithiasis: a consensus statement.
Journal of endourology, 2020 PURPOSE Cystinuria is a genetic disorder with both autosomal recessive or incompletely dominant inheritance. The disorder disrupts cystine and other dibasic amino acid transport in the proximal tubules of the kidney resulting in recurrent kidney stone ...

Influence of Sulfur-Containing Diamino Acid Structure on Covalently Crosslinked Copolypeptide Hydrogels. [PDF]
, 2018 Biologically occurring non-canonical di-α-amino acids were converted into new di-N-carboxyanhydride (di-NCA) monomers in reasonable yields with high purity.

Translational andrology and urology, 2014 Our understanding of the molecular basis of cystinuria has deepened as the result of the causative genes, SLC3A1 and SLC7A9, being identified. The proteins coded for by these genes form a heterodimer responsible for reabsorption of filtered cystine in the proximal tubule. Failure of this transport system to be targeted to the apical membrane, as in the

Crystallization of cystine [PDF]
Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 1995 Cystine is an amino acid, which is a constituent of the urinary stones. It also is deposited in eyes, thyroid glands, bone marrow and white blood corpuscles. Crystals of cystine have been grown by both solution and gel methods. Small bunched hexagonal crystals, along with many other morphological crystals of size 0.3 mm across, were obtained.
