Selective Inhibition of Protein Disulfide Isomerase by Estrogens
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a multifunctional microsomal enzyme that participates in the formation of protein disulfide bonds. PDI catalyzes the reduction of protein disulfide bonds in the presence of excess reduced glutathione and has been implicated in the reductive degradation of insulin; E.

Protein disulfide isomerase is essential for spermatogenesis in mice. [PDF]
Spermatogenesis requires precise posttranslational control in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but the mechanism remains largely unknown. The protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family is a group of thiol oxidoreductases responsible for catalyzing the disulfide bond formation of nascent proteins.

Discrimination between Native and Non-native Disulfides by Protein-disulfide Isomerase [PDF]
The folding assistant and chaperone protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) catalyzes disulfide formation, reduction, and isomerization of misfolded proteins. PDI substrates are not restricted to misfolded proteins; PDI catalyzes the dithiothreitol (DTT)-dependent reduction of native ribonuclease A, microbial ribonuclease, and pancreatic trypsin inhibitor ...

Identification of protein disulfide isomerase 1 as a key isomerase for disulfide bond formation in apolipoprotein B100 [PDF]
Apolipoprotein (apo) B is an obligatory component of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), and its cotranslational and posttranslational modifications are important in VLDL synthesis, secretion, and hepatic lipid homeostasis. ApoB100 contains 25 cysteine residues and eight disulfide bonds. Although these disulfide bonds were suggested to be important in
