mBioMethanethiol (MT) is a sulfur-containing compound produced during dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) degradation by marine bacteria. The C–S bond of MT can be cleaved by methanethiol oxidases (MTOs) to release a sulfur atom.

Acceleration of Anaerobic Cysteine Transformations to Sulfane Sulfur Consequent to γ-Glutamyl Transpeptidase Inhibition [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2012 Toxicity of drugs and radiation in the cells is largely dependent on the level of thiols. In the present studies, an attempt has been made to inhibit γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γGT) activity in EAT-bearing animals tissue.

Sulfane Sulfur is an intrinsic signal activating MexR‐regulated antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2020 Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, an opportunistic human pathogen, deploys several strategies to resist antibiotics. It uses multidrug efflux pumps, including the MexAB‐OprM pump, for antibiotic resistance, and it also produces hydrogen sulfide (H2S) that ...

Role of sulfane sulfur species in elemental tellurium nanorod formation in mammalian cells
Redox Biochemistry and ChemistryTellurium (Te) is an industrially useful element but its oxyanions, such as tellurite and tellurate, are naturally occurring chemical forms that can become a potential source of toxicity to humans and animals.
