The Eye Lens Protein, γS Crystallin, Undergoes Glutathionylation-Induced Disulfide Bonding Between Cysteines 22 and 26

open access: yesBiomolecules
The oxidation of cysteines in crystallins is a major age-related modification associated with cataract formation. The purpose of this research was to determine the susceptibility of γS-crystallin to glutathionylation-induced oxidation and disulfide bond ...

Cytosolic Isocitrate Dehydrogenase from Arabidopsis thaliana Is Regulated by Glutathionylation

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2019
NADP-dependent (Nicotinamide Adénine Dinucléotide Phosphate-dependent) isocitrate dehydrogenases (NADP-ICDH) are metabolic enzymes involved in 2-oxoglutarate biosynthesis, but they also supply cells with NADPH. Different NADP-ICDH genes are

Glutathionylation of Actin in the Dictyostelium Cytoskeleton

open access: yes, 2015
Glutathione (GSH) is the most abundant antioxidant in living organisms. It is a small tripeptide composed of three amino acid residues; glutamate, cysteine and glycine.

Cross-Linking Protein Glutathionylation Mediated by O2‑Arylated Bis-Diazeniumdiolate “Double JS-K”

open access: yes, 2016
Attachment of glutathione (GSH) to cysteine residues in proteins (S-glutathionylation) is a reversible post-translational modification that can profoundly alter protein structure and function.

Effects of Cadmium on Actin Glutathionylation and Focal Adhesions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The toxic metal ion cadmium (Cd2+) is pro-oxidant and specifically disrupts the actin cytoskeleton in renal mesangial cells. This study investigated the role of Cd2+-mediated redox modulation of actin through protein S-glutathionylation and the effects ...

S-Glutathionylation in Monocyte and Macrophage (Dys)Function

open access: yes, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the accumulation of monocytes and macrophages in the vascular wall. Monocytes and macrophages play a central role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic lesion development ...

Reversible and Irreversible Protein Glutathionylation: Biological and Clinical Aspects

open access: yes, 2011
INTRODUCTION: Depending in part on the glutathione:glutathione disulfide ratio, reversible protein glutathionylation to a mixed disulfide may occur.

Actin S-glutathionylation: evidence against a thiol-disulphide exchange mechanism

open access: yes, 2003
Many proteins, including actin, are targets for S-glutathionylation, the reversible formation of mixed disulphides between protein cysteinyl thiol groups and glutathione (GSH) that can be induced in cells by oxidative stress.

Oxidative Stress Induced S-glutathionylation and Proteolytic Degradation of Mitochondrial Thymidine Kinase 2

open access: yes, 2012
Protein glutathionylation in response to oxidative stress can affect both the stability and activity of target proteins. Mitochondrial thymidine kinase 2 (TK2) is a key enzyme in mitochondrial DNA precursor synthesis.

Polysulfur-based bulking of dynamin-related protein 1 prevents ischemic sulfide catabolism and heart failure in mice

open access: yesNature Communications
The presence of redox-active molecules containing catenated sulfur atoms (supersulfides) in living organisms has led to a review of the concepts of redox biology and its translational strategy.
