Novel Characterization of Antioxidant Enzyme, 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase-Knockout Mice: Overexpression of the Evolutionarily-Related Enzyme Rhodanese

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2019
The antioxidant enzyme, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MST, EC 2.8.1.2) is localized in the cytosol and mitochondria, while the evolutionarily-related enzyme, rhodanese (thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, TST, EC 2.8.1.1) is localized in the ...

The isolation of rumen enterococci strains along with high potential utilizing cyanide

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cyanogenic glycosides in forage species and the possibility of cyanide (CN) poisoning can have undesirable effects on ruminants. The literature estimates that unknown rumen bacteria with rhodanese activity are key factors in the animal detoxification of ...

Is Development of High-Grade Gliomas Sulfur-Dependent?

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
We characterized γ-cystathionase, rhodanese and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase activities in various regions of human brain (the cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum and subcortical nuclei) and human gliomas with II to IV grade ...

The Mechanisms of Thiosulfate Toxicity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Elemental sulfur and sulfite have been used to inhibit the growth of yeasts, but thiosulfate has not been reported to be toxic to yeasts. We observed that thiosulfate was more inhibitory than sulfite to Saccharomyces cerevisiae growing in a common yeast ...

Possible Roles of Plant Sulfurtransferases in Detoxification of Cyanide, Reactive Oxygen Species, Selected Heavy Metals and Arsenate

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
Plants and animals have evolved various potential mechanisms to surmount the adverse effects of heavy metal toxicity. Plants possess low molecular weight compounds containing sulfhydryl groups (-SH) that actively react with toxic metals.

Structure of TBC1D23 N-terminus reveals a novel role for rhodanese domain.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
Members of the Tre2-Bub2-Cdc16 (TBC) family often function to regulate membrane trafficking and to control signaling transductions pathways. As a member of the TBC family, TBC1D23 is critical for endosome-to-Golgi cargo trafficking by serving as a bridge

Soil enzyme activity and sulphur uptake by oilseed rape depending on fertilization and biostimulant application

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2018
Purpose Besides nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, sulphur is nowadays considered fundamental for plants, and due to its deficit in many regions, should be provided to crops by fertilization.

Thylakoid Rhodanese-like Protein–Ferredoxin:NADP+ Oxidoreductase Interaction Is Integrated into Plant Redox Homeostasis System

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
In vascular plants, the final photosynthetic electron transfer from ferredoxin (Fd) to NADP+ is catalyzed by the flavoenzyme ferredoxin:NADP+ oxidoreductase (FNR).

Characterization of a rhodanese homologue from Haemonchus contortus and its immune-modulatory effects on goat immune cells in vitro

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Modulation of the host immune response by nematode parasites has been widely reported. Rhodaneses (thiosulfate: cyanide sulfurtransferases) are present in a wide range of organisms, such as archaea, bacteria, fungi, plants and animals ...
