Arabidopsis AtMSRB5 functions as a salt-stress protector for both Arabidopsis and rice
Salinity, drought and low temperature are major environmental factors that adversely affect crop productivity worldwide. In this study we adopted an activation tagging approach to identify salt tolerant mutants of Arabidopsis.

Cloperastine suppresses osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting PGC1β‐mediated oxidative phosphorylation. Its incorporation into a ROS‐responsive, Asp8‐modified nanoplatform enhances skeletal accumulation. The resulting Clo/Asp8‐PMK‐MCs combine cloperastine‐mediated antiresorptive activity with carrier‐mediated osteogenic activity to attenuate OVX‐induced ...

Catalytic Advantages Provided by Selenocysteine in Methionine-S-Sulfoxide Reductases†
Methionine sulfoxide reductases are key enzymes that repair oxidatively damaged proteins. Two distinct stereospecific enzyme families are responsible for this function: MsrA (methionine-S-sulfoxide reductase) and MsrB (methionine-R-sulfoxide reductase).

Role of selenium in the pathophysiology of cardiorenal anaemia syndrome
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have multiple bidirectional mechanisms, and anaemia is one of the critical factors that are associated with the progression of the two disorders [referred to as cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS)].

Methionine sulfoxide reductases, enzymes that reverse the oxidation of methionine residues, have been described in a wide range of species. The reduction of the diastereoisomers of oxidized methionine is catalyzed by two different monomeric methionine ...

Role of methionine sulfoxide reductases A and B of Enterococcus faecalis in oxidative stress and virulence. [PDF]
Methionine sulfoxide reductases A and B are antioxidant repair enzymes that reduce the S- and R-diastereomers of methionine sulfoxides back to methionine, respectively.

ABSTRACT Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is effective against a variety of microorganisms. Here, we described effects on an Escherichia coli strain isolated from hospital wastewater caused by treatment with physical plasma. E. coli GW‐AmxH19 was incubated in artificial wastewater and treated for 15 min with CAP.

A common feature of many amyloid diseases is the appearance of oxidized, aggregated proteins. Methionine is one of the most readily oxidized amino acids, and its oxidative state is regulated in vivo by the methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr).
