Investigating the Catalytic and the Metabolic Role of the Thiol Dioxygenase and a Sulfurtransferase in the mdo Operon from Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Mammalian cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear iron containing enzyme that belongs to the cupin superfamily. CDO catalyzes the oxidation of cysteine to cysteine sulfinic acid.

Role of hydrogen sulfide in health and disease
Abstract In the past, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was recognized as a toxic and dangerous gas; in recent years, with increased research, we have discovered that H2S can act as an endogenous regulatory transmitter. In mammals, H2S‐catalyzing enzymes, such as cystathionine‐β‐synthase, cystathionine‐γ‐lyase, and 3‐mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase, are ...

MarR family proteins sense sulfane sulfur in bacteria
Abstract Members of the multiple antibiotic resistance regulator (MarR) protein family are ubiquitous in bacteria and play critical roles in regulating cellular metabolism and antibiotic resistance. MarR family proteins function as repressors, and their interactions with modulators induce the expression of controlled genes. The previously characterized

Oxidized carbon nanozymes catalytically oxidize hydrogen sulfide to polysulfides and thiosulfate in an oxygen‐dependent manner. In this report the reaction kinetics of polysulfide and thiosulfate formation both in a cell‐free setting and intracellularly and present the possible role of these nanozymes as a supportive therapy in Down Syndrome, a ...

Abstract Priming plants with chemical agents has been extensively investigated as a means for improving their tolerance to many biotic and abiotic stresses. Earlier, we showed that priming young avocado (Persea americana Mill cv. ‘Hass’) trees with sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), a donor of hydrogen sulfide, improves the response of photosynthesis to ...

Mechanistic investigations of C-S bond formation in anaerobic ergothioneine biosynthesis and aerobic ovothiol biosynthesis [PDF]
Ergothioneine and ovothiol A are naturally occurring thiol-histidine derivatives. Both of them are suggested to be beneficial to human health. Ergothioneine has anti-inflammation and anti-oxidative properties and ovothiol has anti-proliferative ...
