Quantitative persulfide site identification (qPerS-SID) reveals protein targets of H₂S releasing donors in mammalian cells

open access: yes, 2016
H2S is an important signalling molecule involved in diverse biological processes. It mediates the formation of cysteine persulfides (R-S-SH), which affect the activity of target proteins. Like thiols, persulfides show reactivity towards electrophiles and

Solution Structures and Backbone Dynamics of Escherichia coli Rhodanese PspE in Its Sulfur-Free and Persulfide-Intermediate Forms: Implications for the Catalytic Mechanism of Rhodanese,

open access: yes, 2016
Rhodanese catalyzes the sulfur-transfer reaction that transfers sulfur from thiosulfate to cyanide by a double-displacement mechanism, in which an active cysteine residue plays a central role.

Longevity control by supersulfide-mediated mitochondrial respiration and regulation of protein quality

open access: yesRedox Biology
Supersulfides, which are defined as sulfur species with catenated sulfur atoms, are increasingly being investigated in biology. We recently identified pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent biosynthesis of cysteine persulfide (CysSSH) and related ...

Proton and Lithium cation interactions with hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen persulfide

open access: yes, 1989
The interaction of hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen persulfide with protons and lithium cations was examined by means of ab initio 6–31G* calculations. The influence of the correlation energy for selected complexes was estimated. Contrary to former results,

A Vinyl-Boronate Ester-Based Persulfide Donor Controllable by Hydrogen Peroxide, a Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)

open access: yes, 2018
A vinyl boronate ester-based persulfidating agent that is selectively activated by hydrogen peroxide, which is a reactive oxygen species (ROS), and efficiently generated a persulfide by a hitherto unexplored 1,4-O,S-relay mechanism is reported.

Hydropersulfides promote angiogenesis and preserve vascular function

open access: yesRedox Biology
Hydropersulfides (RSSH) are increasingly recognized as key mediators in redox signalling in mammalian cells, although their physiological functions, especially in angiogenesis, remain unknown. Direct mechanistic investigation of RSSH has been challenging

Mammalian frataxin directly enhances sulfur transfer of NFS1 persulfide to both ISCU and free thiols

open access: yes
Friedreich's ataxia is a severe neurodegenerative disease caused by the decreased expression of frataxin, a mitochondrial protein that stimulates iron sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis.
