Gap Analysis of Metabolic Conversions of Off‐Flavors and Antinutrients in Plant‐Based Substrates
ABSTRACT To drastically reduce the carbon footprint of the food production chain, a major shift towards alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products is required. The use of plant‐based proteins is a promising route, but it also comes with challenges: Plant‐based proteins often contain antinutritional factors and off‐flavors, which can ...

Cellular senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction disrupt adipose tissue homeostasis during aging, but mechanisms remain unclear. HDAC9 expression increases with age in mouse adipose tissue and Hdac9 knockout mice showed reduced fat mass, senescence markers, and enhanced mitochondrial gene expression, respiration, and thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (Tst)

Rhodaneses catalyze the transfer of the sulfane sulfur from thiosulfate or thiosulfonates to thiophilic acceptors such as cyanide and dithiols. In this work, we define for the first time the gene, and hence the amino acid sequence, of a 12-kDa rhodanese ...

Novel roles of sulfur metabolism in stress‐controlled stomata aperture regulation
Summary Stomatal closure allows plants to conserve water by reducing transpiration during drought. Surprisingly, the assimilation of the macronutrient sulfur is intimately connected to the drought stress response. This Tansley insight will only briefly touch on the general impact of sulfate assimilation on the production of drought‐response metabolites.

Cyanide is a toxic compound that is converted to the non-toxic thiocyanate by a rhodanese enzyme. Rhodaneses belong to the family of transferases (sulfurtransferases), which are largely studied.

Glutathione hydropersulfides (GSSH) are alluded to play crucial roles in signal transduction, redox homeostasis, and metabolic regulation. However, the detailed biological functions of GSSH in these aspects are extremely ambiguous.

Cysteine catabolism and the role of sulfurtransferases in persulfidation reactions in Arabidopsis
International audienceSulfur is an essential and versatile element in all living organisms. It is present in the amino acids methionine and cysteine, part of several secondary compounds, several cofactors and the signalling molecule hydrogen sulfide (H2S)

Conformational studies on Arabidopsis sulfurtransferase AtStr1 with spectroscopic methods [PDF]
Sulfurtransferases/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.

X-ray structures of Nfs2, the plastidial cysteine desulfurase from Arabidopsis thaliana
International audienceThe chloroplastic Arabidopsis thaliana Nfs2 (AtNfs2) is a group II pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent cysteine desulfurase that is involved in the initial steps of iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis.

Insight into the sulfur metabolism of Desulfurella amilsii by differential proteomics [PDF]
Many questions regarding proteins involved in microbial sulfur metabolism remain unsolved. For sulfur respiration at low pH, the terminal electron acceptor is still unclear.
