Peroxiredoxin IV (Prx4), a typical two-cysteine-containing member of the peroxidase family, functions as an antioxidant to maintain cellular redox homeostasis through the reduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via cycles of oxidation–reduction ...

Circadian Oscillation of Sulfiredoxin in the Mitochondria [PDF]
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) released from mitochondria regulates various cell signaling pathways. Given that H2O2-eliminating enzymes such as peroxiredoxin III (PrxIII) are abundant in mitochondria, however, it has remained unknown how such release can occur.

A Novel Role for Human Sulfiredoxin in the Reversal of Glutathionylation [PDF]
Abstract Modification of protein cysteine residues by disulfide formation with glutathione (glutathionylation) is a reversible posttranslational modification of critical importance in controlling cell signaling events following oxidative and/or nitrosative stress.

Catalytic Mechanism of Sulfiredoxin from Saccharomyces cerevisiae Passes through an Oxidized Disulfide Sulfiredoxin Intermediate That Is Reduced by Thioredoxin [PDF]
Sulfiredoxin catalyzes the ATP-dependent reduction of overoxidized eukaryotic 2-Cys peroxiredoxin PrxSO(2) into sulfenic PrxSOH. Recent mechanistic studies on sulfiredoxins have validated a catalytic mechanism that includes formation of a phosphoryl intermediate on the sulfinyl moiety of PrxSO(2), followed by an attack of the catalytic cysteine of ...

In current study, we tested the hypothesis that c-Jun-dependent sulfiredoxin expression mediates protective effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) against neurotoxicity induced by 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP), a mitochondrial complex II ...

Deglutathionylation of 2-Cys Peroxiredoxin Is Specifically Catalyzed by Sulfiredoxin [PDF]
Reversible protein glutathionylation plays a key role in cellular regulation and cell signaling and protects protein thiols from hyperoxidation. Sulfiredoxin (Srx), an enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of Cys-sulfinic acid derivatives of 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (2-Cys Prxs), has been shown to catalyze the deglutathionylation of actin.

Structural Basis for the Retroreduction of Inactivated Peroxiredoxins by Human Sulfiredoxin, [PDF]
Sufiredoxins (Srx) repair the inactivated forms of typical two-Cys peroxiredoxins (Prx) implicated in hydrogen peroxide-mediated cell signaling. The reduction of the cysteine sulfinic acid moiety within the active site of the Prx by Srx involves novel sulfur chemistry and the use of ATP and Mg(2+).
