Protein glutathionylation in health and disease

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - General Subjects, 2013
It is now recognized that protein cysteines exist not only as free thiols or intramolecular disulfides, that help maintain the 3D structure of proteins, but can also undergo different types of oxidation, one of which is glutathionylation, or the formation of mixed disulfides with glutathione (GSH).We will discuss how proteins can undergo ...

Role of Glutathionylation in Infection and Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesNutrients, 2019
Glutathionylation, that is, the formation of mixed disulfides between protein cysteines and glutathione (GSH) cysteines, is a reversible post-translational modification catalyzed by different cellular oxidoreductases, by which the redox state of the cell modulates protein function. So far, most studies on the identification of glutathionylated proteins

Redox Regulation by Protein S-Glutathionylation: From Molecular Mechanisms to Implications in Health and Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
S-glutathionylation, the post-translational modification forming mixed disulfides between protein reactive thiols and glutathione, regulates redox-based signaling events in the cell and serves as a protective mechanism against oxidative damage.

Glutathionylation regulates IκB

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
Although there has been considerable interest in the regulation of NFkappaB activation by glutathionylation, the possibility of IkappaB as a target for glutathionylation has not been investigated. We now report that Cys(189) of IkappaB alpha is a target for S-glutathionylation. This modification is reversed by thiols such as dithiothreitol and GSH. The

Overview of Protein Glutathionylation

Current Protocols in Toxicology, 2006
AbstractMany proteins contain free thiols that can be modified by the reversible formation of mixed disulfides with glutathione. Protein glutathionylation is of significance for defense against oxidative damage and in redox signaling. Here we outline the mechanisms and possible significance of protein glutathionylation.

Measurement of Protein Glutathionylation

Current Protocols in Toxicology, 2006
AbstractProteins contain free, exposed thiols that can be glutathionylated in the native state as a result of thiol‐disulfide exchange reactions with glutathione disulfide, catalyzed by glutaredoxin. A number of other reactions can also lead to protein glutathionylation. The modification of proteins by glutathionylation is important in oxidative damage

Glutathionylation of Mitochondrial Proteins

Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2005
Many proteins contain free thiols that can be modified by the reversible formation of mixed disulfides with low-molecular-weight thiols through a process called S-thiolation. As the majority of these modifications result from the interaction of protein thiols with the endogenous glutathione pool, protein glutathionylation is the predominant alteration.

Redox regulation of cyclophilin A by glutathionylation

PROTEOMICS, 2006
AbstractUsing redox proteomics techniques to characterize the thiol status of proteins in human T lymphocytes, we identified cyclophilin A (CypA) as a specifically oxidized protein early after mitogen activation. CypA is an abundantly expressed cytosolic protein, target of the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (CsA), for which a variety of functions
