How are proteins reduced in the endoplasmic reticulum? [PDF]
The reversal of thiol oxidation in proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is crucial for protein folding, degradation, chaperone function, and the ER stress response. Our understanding of this process is generally poor but progress has been made.

Okanin Suppresses the Growth of Colorectal Cancer Cells by Targeting at Peroxiredoxin 5
Okanin suppresses colorectal cancer growth by directly targeting PRDX5. This natural compound selectively binds peroxiredoxin 5 (PRDX5), inhibiting its activity and inducing WSB1‐mediated degradation. PRDX5 loss elevates ROS, suppresses GPX4 via SIAH2, and further triggers cell death (apoptosis and ferroptosis).

Redox regulation of methylthioadenosine phosphorylase in liver cells: molecular mechanism and functional implications [PDF]
MTAP (5'-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase) catalyses the reversible phosphorolytic cleavage of methylthioadenosine leading to the production of methylthioribose-1-phosphate and adenine.

Oxidative stress in wild‐derived and cultivated peanut genotypes caused by heat stress at flowering
Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is a globally important crop; however, its productivity is increasingly threatened by heat stress, exacerbated by global warming. Developing heat‐tolerant peanuts is crucial for sustainable production amidst rising temperatures.

8-Oxoguanine DNA Glycosylase-1 Augments Proinflammatory Gene Expression by Facilitating the Recruitment of Site-Specific Transcription Factors [PDF]
Among the insidious DNA base lesions, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most abundant, a lesion that arises through the attack by reactive oxygen species on guanine, especially when located in cis-regulatory elements.

ABSTRACT In view of the potential use of Mg‐based materials as biodegradable metals in temporary implantation, it is important to study the role of different components of the biological environment on the corrosion behavior. This work focuses on the effect of selected amino acids and their concentrations on time‐dependent corrosion of Mg alloy AZ31 ...

Unraveling the Catalytic Mechanism of Nitrile Hydratases [PDF]
To elucidate a detailed catalytic mechanism for nitrile hydratases (NHases), the pH and temperature dependence of the kinetic constants kcat and Km for the cobalt-type NHase from Pseudonocardia thermophila JCM 3095 (PtNHase) were examined.

Active focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is associated with massive oxidation of plasma albumin [PDF]
The basic mechanism for idiopathic FSGS still is obscure. Indirect evidence in humans and generation of FSGS by oxidants in experimental models suggest a role of free radicals.
