Molecular and functional characterization of sulfiredoxin homologs from higher plants [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2006
By reducing cysteine-sulfinic acid in oxidized peroxiredoxin, sulfiredoxin (Srx) plays an important role in oxidation stress resistance in yeast and human cells. Here, we report the first molecular and functional characterization of Srx homolog from higher plants.

Peroxiredoxin 2: An Important Element of the Antioxidant Defense of the Erythrocyte

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Peroxiredoxin 2 (Prdx2) is the third most abundant erythrocyte protein. It was known previously as calpromotin since its binding to the membrane stimulates the calcium-dependent potassium channel.

Cysteine Specific Targeting of the Functionally Distinct Peroxiredoxin and Glutaredoxin Proteins by the Investigational Disulfide BNP7787

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
Glutaredoxin (Grx), peroxiredoxin (Prx), and thioredoxin (Trx) are redoxin family proteins that catalyze different types of chemical reactions that impact cell growth and survival through functionally distinct intracellular pathways.

Piecing Together How Peroxiredoxins Maintain Genomic Stability

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2018
Peroxiredoxins, a highly conserved family of thiol oxidoreductases, play a key role in oxidant detoxification by partnering with the thioredoxin system to protect against oxidative stress.

A novel role of the fission yeast sulfiredoxin Srx1 in heme acquisition

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2023
AbstractThe transporter Str3 promotes heme import in Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells that lack the heme receptor Shu1 and are deficient in heme biosynthesis. Under microaerobic conditions, the peroxiredoxin Tpx1 acts as a heme scavenger within the Str3‐dependent pathway.

Synergistic effects of methyl 2-cyano-3,11-dioxo-18beta-olean-1,-12-dien-30-oate and erlotinib on erlotinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, 2021
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is often characterized by an underlying mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), contributing to aggressive metastatic disease.

Upregulation of Mitochondrial Redox Sensitive Proteins in LPS-Treated Stefin B-Deficient Macrophages

open access: yesCells, 2019
Stefin B (cystatin B) is an intracellular inhibitor of cysteine cathepsins and mutations in the stefin B gene, resulting in the development of Unverricht−Lundborg disease, which is a form of myoclonic epilepsy. It was suggested that a key mechanism

Sulfiredoxin-1 attenuates injury and inflammation in acute pancreatitis through the ROS/ER stress/Cathepsin B axis

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Acinar cell injury and the inflammatory response are critical bioprocesses of acute pancreatitis (AP). We investigated the role and underlying mechanism of sulfiredoxin-1 (Srxn1) in AP.
