Top-Down Characterization of an Antimicrobial Sanitizer, Leading From Quenchers of Efficacy to Mode of Action

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
We developed a top-down strategy to characterize an antimicrobial, oxidizing sanitizer, which has diverse proposed applications including surface-sanitization of fresh foods, and with benefits for water resilience. The strategy involved finding quenchers

Excessive training does not induce mitochondrial dysfunction or impair insulin signalling within skeletal muscle

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Three weeks of overtraining in trained endurance athletes reduced exercise performance without impairing glucose tolerance. In skeletal muscle, overtraining was associated with increased expression of lipid metabolism‐related proteins, enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and preserved insulin signalling, despite elevated oxidative ...

Drought and salinity stress remodel Asian rice (Oryza sativa) leaf development through cell‐type‐specific regulatory programs

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 4, Page 1376-1395, November 2026.
Osmotic stressors induce developmental and physiological changes in rice (Oryza sativa) seedlings, which are modulated by cell‐type‐specific gene expression and regulatory networks. We exposed plants to two levels of drought and salinity stress and measured the effects of these stressors on developing leaves by measuring physiological traits, ion ...

Methionine sulfoxide reductases of Aspergillus nidulans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr) are repair proteins, which provide an important part of the cellular antioxidant defense. Methionine oxidation results in a diasteromeric mixture of methionine-S-sulfoxide (Met-S-O) and methionine-R-sulfoxide (Met-R ...

Diversity of protein and mRNA forms of mammalian methionine sulfoxide reductase B1 due to intronization and protein processing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msrs) are repair enzymes that protect proteins from oxidative stress by catalyzing stereospecific reduction of oxidized methionine residues.

One Hundred Years of Sulfido Ligand in the Molybdenum Cofactor: New Perspectives

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 19, 14 October 2026.
The terminal sulfido ligand in mononuclear molybdoenzymes has been appreciated for almost 125 years, with the characterization of Schardinger's enzyme in cow's milk, now known to be xanthine oxidase, that was isolated in 1902 in Vienna, Austria. The ligand is found in molybdoenzymes identified across all kingdoms of life.

Unraveling the specificities of the different human methionine sulfoxide reductases

open access: yes, 2014
The oxidation of free and protein-bound methionine into methionine sulfoxide is a frequently occurring modification caused by ROS. Most organisms express methionine sulfoxide reductases (MSR enzymes) to repair this potentially damaging modification ...

Methionine oxidation products as biomarkers of oxidative damage to proteins and modulators of cellular metabolism and toxicity

open access: yesRedox Biochemistry and Chemistry
Proteins are highly abundant and readily oxidized targets of reactive species formed in biological systems, with these often accounting for greater than 50 % of the dry mass of biological samples.

Selenoprotein MsrB1 promotes anti-inflammatory cytokine gene expression in macrophages and controls immune response in vivo

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Post-translational redox modification of methionine residues often triggers a change in protein function. Emerging evidence points to this reversible protein modification being an important regulatory mechanism under various physiological conditions ...
