Methionine Sulfoxide Reduction in Mammals: Characterization of Methionine-R-Sulfoxide Reductases [PDF]
Methionine residues in proteins are susceptible to oxidation by reactive oxygen species, but can be repaired via reduction of the resulting methionine sulfoxides by methionine-S-sulfoxide reductase (MsrA) and methionine-R-sulfoxide reductase (MsrB).

Methionine sulfoxide reductase B3 requires resolving cysteine residues for full activity and can act as a stereospecific methionine oxidase. [PDF]
The oxidation of methionine residues in proteins occurs during oxidative stress and can lead to an alteration in protein function. The enzyme methionine sulfoxide reductase reverses this modification.

Campylobacter concisus, an emerging pathogen found throughout the human oral-gastrointestinal tract, is able to grow under microaerobic or anaerobic conditions; in the latter case, N- or S-oxides could be used as terminal electron acceptors (TEAs ...

Drosophila methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MSRA) lacks methionine oxidase activity. [PDF]
Mouse, human, and E. coli methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MSRA) stereospecifically catalyze both the reduction of S-methionine sulfoxide to methionine and the oxidation of methionine to S-methionine sulfoxide. Calmodulin has 9 methionine residues, but only Met77 is oxidized by MSRA, and this is completely reversed when MSRA operates in the reductase ...

The selenoprotein methionine sulfoxide reductase B1 (MSRB1)
Methionine (Met) can be oxidized to methionine sulfoxide (MetO), which exist as R- and S-diastereomers. Present in all three domains of life, methionine sulfoxide reductases (MSR) are the enzymes that reduce MetO back to Met. Most characterized among them are MSRA and MSRB, which are strictly stereospecific for the S- and R-diastereomers of MetO ...

Vibrio cholerae ensures function of host proteins required for virulence through consumption of luminal methionine sulfoxide. [PDF]
Vibrio cholerae is a diarrheal pathogen that induces accumulation of lipid droplets in enterocytes, leading to lethal infection of the model host Drosophila melanogaster. Through untargeted lipidomics, we provide evidence that this process is the product
