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 rhodanese RhdA helps Azotobacter vinelandii in maintaining cellular redox balance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The tandem domain rhodanese-homology protein RhdA of Azotobacter vinelandii shows an active-site loop structure that confers structural peculiarity in the environment of its catalytic cysteine residue.

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 ...

Chaperone activity and structure of monomeric polypeptide binding domains of GroEL [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The chaperonin GroEL is a large complex composed of 14 identical 57-kDa subunits that requires ATP and GroES for some of its activities. We find that a monomeric polypeptide corresponding to residues 191 to 345 has the activity of the tetradecamer both ...

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.

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).

Effects of Postharvest Storage on Cyanide Content and Activity of Partially Purified Rhodanese from Bitter Cassava (Manihot Utilissima) Tubers

open access: yes, 2020
This research investigated the effects of postharvest storage on cyanide content and rhodanese isolated from bitter cassava (Manihot Utilissima) tubers. Cyanide content of freshly harvested sample, samples stored for 4 days and samples stored for 8 days ...

The Quantity and Quality of White Mustard (Sinapis alba L.) Seed Depending on Nitrogen Fertilization and Soil Enzyme Activity

open access: yesAgronomy
The aim of this research was to determine the response of white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) cultivated in 2021–2022 in Lucim (53°23′06″ N 17°50′08″ E) in Poland to the soil nitrogen doses: N40—40 kg N·ha−1, N60—60 kg N·ha−1, N80—(40 + 40)-80 kg N·ha−1, as ...
