Is aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibited by sulfur compounds? In vitro and in vivo studies [PDF]
Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) catalyzes the critical step of ethanol metabolism, i.e. transformation of toxic acetaldehyde to acetic acid. It is a redox sensitive protein with the key Cys in its active site. Recently, it has been documented that activity

Anomalous Kv 7 channel activity in human malignant hyperthermia syndrome unmasks a key role for H2 S and persulfidation in skeletal muscle. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Human malignant hyperthermia (MH) syndrome is induced by volatile anaesthetics and involves increased levels of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS)-derived H2 S within skeletal muscle.

Oxidation of PKGIα mediates an endogenous adaptation to pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Chronic hypoxia causes pulmonary hypertension (PH), vascular remodelling, right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy and cardiac failure. Protein kinase G Iα (PKGIα) is susceptible to oxidation, forming an inter-protein disulfide homodimer associated with kinase

Molecular analysis of the distribution and phylogeny of the soxB gene among sulfur-oxidizing bacteria - evolution of the Sox sulfur-oxidizing enzyme system [PDF]
The soxB gene encodes the SoxB component of the periplasmic thiosulfate-oxidizing Sox enzyme complex, which has been proposed to be widespread among the various phylogenetic groups of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) that convert thiosulfate to sulfate ...

Protein persulfidation in plants : Mechanisms and functions beyond a simple stress response [PDF]
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) can modulate the activity, localization and interactions of proteins and (re)define their biological function. Understanding how changing environments can alter cellular processes thus requires detailed knowledge ...

Hydrogen Sulfide: A Potential Novel Therapy for the Treatment of Ischemia [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a novel signaling molecule most recently found to be of fundamental importance in cellular function as a regulator of apoptosis, inflammation, and perfusion. Mechanisms of endogenous H2S signaling are poorly understood; however,
