Structural basis for the oxidation of thiosulfate by a sulfur cycle enzyme
Reduced inorganic sulfur compounds are utilized by many bacteria as electron donors to photosynthetic or respiratory electron transport chains. This metabolism is a key component of the biogeochemical sulfur cycle.

Reactive cysteine persulfides and S-polythiolation regulate oxidative stress and redox signaling
Using methodology developed herein, it is found that reactive persulfides and polysulfides are formed endogenously from both small molecule species and proteins in high amounts in mammalian cells and tissues.
