ReDisulphID: A discovery platform for thiol redox sensors identifies a druggable site regulating p53 activation [PDF]
Thiol redox sensors in proteins are emerging as key therapeutic targets, as they govern fundamental signalling pathways and provide crucial sites for covalent drug development. A key mediator of their function is the presence of redox-active disulphides,

On the disulphide bonds of rhodopsins [PDF]
Carboxymethylation using 14C- or 3H-labelled iodoacetic acid has been used to identify the cysteine residues in bovine rhodopsin involved in the formation of the two intramolecular disulphide bridges. Iodo[2-14C]acetic acid was used to modify 5.8-5.9 residues of cysteine under non-reducing conditions.

Protein disulphide isomerase [PDF]
What is it? Protein disulphide isomerase is an enzyme with two interrelated activities: as an oxidoreductase, it can catalyse the formation, reduction and isomerisation of disulphide bonds; and as a polypeptide binding protein, it can function as a molecular chaperone which assists the folding of polypeptides.
