Activation of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase by Glutaredoxin Reducing System
Glutaredoxin (EC 1.15–1.21) is known as an oxidoreductase that protects cysteine residues within proteins against oxidative stress. Glutaredoxin catalyzes an electron transfer reaction that donates an electron to substrate proteins in the reducing system

Making HEDS or tails of glutaredoxin catalysis: Direct reduction of bis(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfide as a non-glutathione disulfide substrate [PDF]
The bis(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfide (HEDS) steady-state assay is the most commonly used assay to measure the activity and kinetic parameters of glutaredoxins.

Alterations in the IGF-System and Antioxidant Biomarkers in Young Brazilian Adults with Type 1 Diabetes: An Analysis of Cardiovascular Risk Factors [PDF]
Chronic hyperglycemia inflicts serious cellular damage by inducing oxidative stress through the excessive production of free radicals. This oxidative milieu may impair the cellular redox capacity and disrupt the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system ...

Silver Binding to Bacterial Glutaredoxins Observed by NMR
Glutaredoxins (GRXs) are a class of enzymes used in the reduction of protein thiols and the removal of reactive oxygen species. The CPYC active site of GRX is a plausible metal binding site, but was previously theorized not to bind metals due to its cis ...

The SP/NK1R System-Mediated ROS Generation in GBM Cells through Inhibiting Glutaredoxin Protein
Altered redox balance is among the main contributing factors developing glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly aggressive grade IV brain tumor. Neuropeptide substance P (SP) plays a key role in modifying the cellular redox environment by activating the ...

S-Denitrosylation: A Crosstalk between Glutathione and Redoxin Systems
S-nitrosylation of proteins occurs as a consequence of the derivatization of cysteine thiols with nitric oxide (NO) and is often associated with diseases and protein malfunction.
