Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is both a lethal gas and an emerging gasotransmitter in humans, suggesting that the cellular H2S level must be tightly regulated. CstB is encoded by the cst operon of the major human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus and is under the ...

The sulfur dioxygenase ETHE1 oxidizes persulfides in the mitochondrial matrix and is involved in the degradation of L-cysteine and hydrogen sulfide. ETHE1 has an essential but as yet undefined function in early embryo development of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Oxidative Stress: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
Oxidative stress occurs when the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production overwhelms the ROS scavenging, which lead to genomic instability, epigenetic regulation, proteostasis imbalance, and lipid peroxidation, subsequently causing the occurrence and development of numerous diseases. ABSTRACT Although the physiological level of reactive oxygen species (

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Cysteine Signalling in Plant Pathogen Response
ABSTRACT The amino acid cysteine is the precursor for a wide range of sulfur‐containing functional molecules in plants, including enzyme cofactors and defence compounds. Due to its redox active thiol group cysteine is highly reactive. Synthesis and degradation pathways are present in several subcellular compartments to adjust the intracellular cysteine

Individuals of Asellus infernus, a sulfidic subterranean population of the Asellus aquaticus species complex from southeastern Romania (left) and surface individuals of A. aquaticus (right). Extreme differences in phenotype are seen comparing the subterranean and surface individuals as adults (top panels) and as embryonic samples (bottom panels ...

In Hyphomicrobium denitrificans, the use of thiosulfate as a supplemental electron donor is regulated by two homologous sulfane‐sulfur responsive ArsR‐type transcriptional repressors, sHdrR and SoxR, that act cooperatively. Remarkably, the regulation by sHdrR/SoxR extends far beyond sulfur oxidation and deeply affects anaerobic metabolism, particularly

ABSTRACT Background Mitochondria have been linked with inflammatory colorectal cancer (CRC) development; however, the association between mitochondria‐related genes (MRGs) and CRC remains unknown. Aims To explore the causal relationship between MRGs and CRC, screen prognostic genes, conduct drug prediction analyses, and investigate the correlations ...
