Exploring pathways of NO and H2S signaling in metabolic depression:The case of anoxic turtles [PDF]
In contrast to most vertebrates, freshwater turtles of the genera Trachemys and Chrysemys survive total oxygen deprivation for long periods of time. This remarkable tolerance makes them ideal August Krogh's model animals to study adaptions to survive ...

Background and Purpose Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is synthesised endogenously through cystathionine β‐synthase (CBS), cystathionine γ‐lyase (CSE) and 3‐mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3‐MST). Although exogenous H2S is known to produce vasodilatation, the vascular effect of H2S produced through 3‐MST is unknown. In this study, we demonstrate the effect

Sulfur is essential in plants because of its presence in numerous molecules including the two amino acids, cysteine, and methionine. Cysteine serves also for the synthesis of glutathione and provides sulfur to many other molecules including protein ...

Mechanism and structural dynamics of sulfur transfer during de novo [2Fe-2S] cluster assembly on ISCU2 [PDF]
Maturation of iron-sulfur proteins in eukaryotes is initiated in mitochondria by the core iron-sulfur cluster assembly (ISC) complex, consisting of the cysteine desulfurase sub-complex NFS1-ISD11-ACP1, the scaffold protein ISCU2, the electron donor ...

Antioxidative and anti-inflammatory actions of reactive cysteine persulfides
Cysteine persulfide (CysSSH) and polysulfides (CysS[S] n H, n>1) are cysteine derivatives having sulfane sulfur atoms bound to cysteine thiol. Recent advances in the development of analytical methods for detection and quantification of persulfides and polysulfides have revealed the biological presence, in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, of persulfide ...

ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a significant threat to alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) growth and development, limiting its productivity and hindering its widespread cultivation. Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) serves as an important gaseous signalling molecule in plants, mediating a myriad of physiological processes like salt tolerance.

ABSTRACT We report two cases of acute occupational exposure to hazardous gas, suspected to be hydrogen sulfide. The 34‐year‐old male and 48‐year‐old female patients worked as cleaners at a pickled cucumber factory. The two victims cleaned a waste tank (containing organic waste that can produce hydrogen sulfide) that had been abandoned for 2 years, with

ABSTRACT Background Hydrogen sulphide (H2S), a gasotransmitter synthesized by cystathionine‐γ‐lyase (CSE), exhibits antioxidant properties and may mimic exercise‐induced muscle protection. However, its mechanistic role in muscle atrophy and exercise intervention remains unclear.

Mining proteomes for zinc finger persulfidation
A meta-analysis of 22 persulfide-specific proteomics datasets reveals widespread persulfidation of zinc finger proteins across various species, highlighting the role of persulfidation as an important post-translational modification.

Biosynthesis and Reactivity of Cysteine Persulfides in Signaling [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) elicits pleiotropic physiological effects ranging from modulation of cardiovascular to CNS functions. A dominant method for transmission of sulfide-based signals is via posttranslational modification of reactive cysteine thiols to persulfides. However, the source of the persulfide donor and whether its relationship to H2S is as a
