Intracellular Localization of Arabidopsis Sulfurtransferases [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2004 Abstract Sulfurtransferases (Str) comprise a group of enzymes widely distributed in archaea, eubacteria, and eukaryota which catalyze the transfer of a sulfur atom from suitable sulfur donors to nucleophilic sulfur acceptors. In all organisms analyzed to date, small gene families encoding Str proteins have been identified.

Is Development of High-Grade Gliomas Sulfur-Dependent?
Molecules, 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 ...

Hypertension and Aging Affect Liver Sulfur Metabolism in Rats
Cells, 2021 Hypertension and age are key risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous transmitter, contributes significantly to regulating arterial blood pressure and aging processes.

A Proteomic Approach to Study the Effect of Thiotaurine on Human Neutrophil Activation [PDF]
, 2017 Thiotaurine, a thiosulfonate related to taurine and hypotaurine, is formed by a metabolic process from cystine and generated by a transulfuration reaction between hypotaurine and thiocysteine.

CoQ deficiency causes disruption of mitochondrial sulfide oxidation, a new pathomechanism associated with this syndrome [PDF]
, 2017 Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a key component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, but it also has several other functions in the cellular metabolism. One of them is to function as an electron carrier in the reaction catalyzed by sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase (

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been shown to act as both anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory mediators. Application of H2S donors generally protects against inflammation; however, experimental results using mice lacking endogenous H2S-producing enzymes ...

The Quantitative Significance of the Transsulfuration Enzymes for H2S Production in Murine Tissues [PDF]
, 2011 The enzymes of the transsulfuration pathway, cystathionine --synthase (CBS) and cystathionine --lyase (CSE), are important for the endogenous production of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule. The relative contributions of CBS and CSE to
