The β-cyanoalanine pathway is involved in the response to water deficit in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2013 The β-cyanoalanine pathway is primarily responsible for detoxification of excess cyanide produced by plants. Recent evidence suggests that cyanide detoxification via this pathway may be involved in the response and tolerance to water deficit in plants ...

Atomic sulfur : an element for adaptation to an oxidative environment [PDF]
, 2017 During the period of rising oxygen concentration in the Earth’s atmosphere (Figure 1), sulfur atoms were incorporated into proteins as redox-active cysteine residues [1] and antioxidant molecules such as thioredoxin, glutathione, and glutaredoxin ...

Yakugaku zasshi : Journal of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, 2008 Inorganic sulfur compounds, such as S(2-), SO(3)(2-) and S(2)O(3)(2-), are produced from sulfur- containing amino acids as intermediary metabolites in mammalian tissues through complex pathways and are ultimately incorporated into sulfate. Reduced sulfur

The effect of lipoic acid on cyanate toxicity in different structures of the rat brain [PDF]
, 2013 Cyanate is formed mostly during nonenzymatic urea biodegradation. Its active form isocyanate reacts with protein –NH(2) and –SH groups, which changes their structure and function. The present studies aimed to investigate the effect of cyanate on activity

Conformational studies on Arabidopsis sulfurtransferase AtStr1 with spectroscopic methods [PDF]
Biological Chemistry, 2007 AbstractSulfurtransferases/rhodaneses (Str) are enzymes widely distributed in archaea, prokaryota and eukaryota, and catalyze the transfer of sulfur from a donor molecule to a thiophilic acceptor substrate. In this reaction, Str cycles between the sulfur-free and the sulfur-substituted form.

VIEW, EarlyView.Fire‐related smoke inhalation‐induced acute lung injury (SI‐ALI) poses a significant public health risk, yet effective treatments are limited due to the lack of suitable models. This study developed a more realistic model of SI‐ALI using organ‐on‐a‐chip and organoid technologies, identified key molecules such as catechol‐O‐methyltransferase and ...

Activation of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase by Glutaredoxin Reducing System [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Glutaredoxin (EC 1.15–1.21) is known as an oxidoreductase that protects cysteine residues within proteins against oxidative stress. Glutaredoxin catalyzes an electron transfer reaction that donates an electron to substrate proteins in the reducing system composed of glutaredoxin, glutathione, glutathione reductase, and nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide

d‐amino acids: new functional insights
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.This review explores recent advances in understanding d‐amino acids (d‐AAs) and their pivotal roles across organisms, from plants to humans. d‐AAs have been implicated in key physiological processes, including cancer, inflammation, immune regulation, kidney disease, diabetes, and nervous system function.
