Cyclic nitroxides inhibit the toxicity of nitric oxide-derived oxidants: mechanisms and implications [PDF]
The substantial therapeutic potential of tempol (4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) and related cyclic nitroxides as antioxidants has stimulated innumerous studies of their reactions with reactive oxygen species.

ABSTRACT Antioxidant activities of acetylated epigallocatechin gallate (A‐EGCG) and ascorbyl palmitate (AP) were compared using different in vitro assays and food model systems. Both A‐EGCG and AP exhibited DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities and reducing power. AP demonstrated greater scavenging efficacy toward both radicals than A‐EGCG (p < 0.

ABSTRACT The ornithine‐urea cycle is a biochemical pathway primarily found in animals, where it plays a crucial role in the re‐assimilation of ammonium and the removal of excess nitrogen in the form of urea. In lower photosynthetic eukaryotes, it contributes to metabolic responses during episodes of high nitrogen availability.

Development of Bioorthogonally Degradable Tough Hydrogels Using Enamine N‐Oxide Based Crosslinkers
Inducibly degradable enamine N‐oxide crosslinkers are integrated into tough double network hydrogels, enabling rapid and bioorthogonal degradation by aqueous diboron solutions. These chemical reagent‐responsive biomaterials maintain structural integrity during use while enabling rapid degradation when needed, making them ideal for applications in ...

Protein evolution usually lies on mutations at disordered domains to promote novel functions and regulations. Here it is demonstrated that this is the case of ANP32A and ANP32B, two paralogs with apparently similar structures and functions, where a single amino‐acid substitution in the disordered domain triggers the extended‐to‐compact conformational ...

Nitric Oxide Binding Geometry in Heme-Proteins: Relevance for Signal Transduction
Nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, signaling, and scavenging is associated to relevant physiological and pathological events. In all tissues and organs, NO levels and related functions are regulated at different levels, with heme proteins playing pivotal roles.

Abstract Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins are ubiquitous processes present in all life kingdoms, involved in the regulation of protein stability, subcellular location and activity. In this context, cytochrome c (Cc) is an excellent case study to analyze the structural and functional changes induced by PTMS as Cc is a small ...
