Effects of Manganese Porphyrins on Cellular Sulfur Metabolism

Molecules, 2020
Manganese porphyrins (MnPs), MnTE-2-PyP5+, MnTnHex-2-PyP5+ and MnTnBuOE-2-PyP5+, are superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetics and form a redox cycle between O2 and reductants, including ascorbic acid, ultimately producing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

Polysulfides promote protein disulfide bond formation in microorganisms growing under anaerobic conditions

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Polysulfides commonly occur in anaerobic, microbial active environments, where they play key roles in sulfur cycling and redox transformations. Anaerobic survival of microorganisms requires the formation of protein disulfide bond (DSB).

History of polysulfides and their role in the evolution of chemical knowledge: from ancient Egypt medicine to the discovery of oxygen

Cogent Arts & Humanities
Before the introduction of modern chemical nomenclature, polysulfides were known as ‘theion hudor’ (divine water), ‘hepar sulphuris’ (liver of sulfur), ‘dia sulphuris’ (synonymous to hepar sulphuris), and ‘liver of sulfur’.
