Structural Characterization of KEAP1 R415K to Guide the Design of KEAP1‐Nrf2 Peptide Inhibitors

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2021
Oxidative stress can cause extensive damage to DNA, proteins, and lipids. Thus, long‐term oxidative stress has been linked to many diseases including cancer and Alzheimer's disease. The highly‐charged binding interface between regulatory protein Kelch‐like ECH‐associated protein 1 (KEAP1) and transcription factor nuclear erythroid factor 2‐like 2 (Nrf2)

Regulation of Nrf2 by Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in Physiology and Pathology

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of aerobic respiration and signaling molecules that control various cellular functions. Nrf2 governs the gene expression of endogenous antioxidant synthesis and ROS-eliminating enzymes in response to various ...

Loss of KEAP1 Causes an Accumulation of Nondegradative Organelles

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
KEAP1 is a cytoplasmic protein that functions as an adaptor for the Cullin-3-based ubiquitin E3 ligase system, which regulates the degradation of many proteins, including NFE2L2/NRF2 and p62/SQSTM1.

NQO1 Enzyme and its Role in Cellular Protection; an Insight

open access: yesIberoamerican Journal of Medicine, 2020
NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is considered as one of the most significant enzyme in cellular defense due to its ability to detoxify reactive quinones and quinone imines to their less toxic hydroquinones forms. NQO1 is a xenobiotic metabolizing

Epigenetic Regulation of NRF2/KEAP1 by Phytochemicals [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Epigenetics has provided a new dimension to our understanding of nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (human NRF2/KEAP1 and murine Nrf2/Keap1) signaling. Unlike the genetic changes affecting DNA sequence, the reversible nature of epigenetic alterations provides an attractive avenue for cancer interception ...
