Folding of peptides and proteins: role of disulfide bonds, recent developments
Disulfide-containing proteins are ideal models for studies of protein folding as the folding intermediates can be observed, trapped, and separated by HPLC during the folding reaction.

Epidermal sampling of lesional, perilesional and non‐lesional skin from psoriasis and eczema patients as well as healthy skin was used to perform an in depth proteomic analysis. IL‐36γ known to be expressed in lesional psoriasis skin was outperformed by the protease inhibitor Elafin as a disease‐specific epidermal biomarker.

Quercetin-3-rutinoside Inhibits Protein Disulfide Isomerase by Binding to Its b′x Domain*
Background: Quercetin-3-rutinoside is an inhibitor of protein disulfide isomerase, a potential target for antithrombotic therapy. Results: Quercetin-3-rutinoside induces a compact conformation in PDI and binds to PDI with an IC50 of about 10 μm ...

Tmx2 Maintains Mitochondrial Function to Support Preimplantation Embryogenesis
TMX2 is a member of the thioredoxin‐related transmembrane protein family. It exhibits specific expression in mouse preimplantation embryos, and its subcellular localization is closely associated with mitochondria. Knockdown of Tmx2 in embryos results in a reduction in mitochondrial number, a decline in mitochondrial membrane potential, and an elevation

Quercetin-3-Rutinoside Blocks the Disassembly of Cholera Toxin by Protein Disulfide Isomerase
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is mainly located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) but is also secreted into the bloodstream where its oxidoreductase activity is involved with thrombus formation.
