PANX2 Suppresses Lung Adenocarcinoma Progression by Inducing Disulfidptosis and Enhancing Antitumor Immunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains a leading cause of cancer mortality with limited therapeutic options. Disulfidptosis, a novel cell death modality driven by disulfide stress, represents a promising target, yet its regulation in LUAD is poorly defined. Here, we identify Pannexin 2 (PANX2) as a tumor suppressor in LUAD.

Comparison of Reduction Activity of three Rice (Oryza sativa) Thioredoxin Isoforms in Reaction with Insulin [PDF]

open access: yesمجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2012
Thioredoxins (Trxs) are ubiquitous, low-molecular-mass proteins with two cysteins in their active site WC(G/P)PC which are involved in reversible reduction of disulfide bonds. Plants contain several forms of Trxs.

PDIA6–SCD1 Axis Rewires Lipid Metabolism to Drive Gastric Cancer Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Protein disulfide isomerase A6 (PDIA6) is identified as an oncogenic driver in gastric cancer. PDIA6 directly binds and stabilizes SCD1 by limiting its ubiquitin–proteasome‐mediated degradation, thereby sustaining monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA)‐enriched lipid homeostasis and lipid metabolic reprogramming.

Functional Characterization of Two Thioredoxin Proteins of Toxoplasma gondii Using the CRISPR-Cas9 System

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Toxoplasmosis caused by infection with Toxoplasma gondii is an important parasitic zoonosis with a worldwide distribution. In this study, we examined the functions of two thioredoxins (namely CTrp26 and CTrx1) of T. gondii tachyzoites by generation of HA

Thiol Reductases in Deinococcus Bacteria and Roles in Stress Tolerance

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Deinococcus species possess remarkable tolerance to extreme environmental conditions that generate oxidative damage to macromolecules. Among enzymes fulfilling key functions in metabolism regulation and stress responses, thiol reductases (TRs) harbour ...

Thioredoxins function as deglutathionylase enzymes in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yes, 2010
Background. Protein-SH groups are amongst the most easily oxidized residues in proteins, but irreversible oxidation can be prevented by protein glutathionylation, in which protein-SH groups form mixed disulphides with glutathione.

Conformational activation and disulfide exchange in HIV-1 Env induce cell-free lytic/fusogenic transformation and enhance infection

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Disulfide exchange is underexplored as a mechanism influencing HIV-1 entry. Prior studies demonstrated that redox enzyme inhibition can prevent HIV-1 infection but with limited mechanistic explanation.

Redox regulation of mammalian sperm capacitation

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2015
Capacitation is a series of morphological and metabolic changes necessary for the spermatozoon to achieve fertilizing ability. One of the earlier happenings during mammalian sperm capacitation is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that will ...

Animal and plant mitochondria contain specific thioredoxins

open access: yes, 1989
Thioredoxins have been purified from pig heart and potato tuber mitochondria which differ in Chromatographie behaviour, enzyme activating capacity, and slightly higher molecular mass (Mr = 12500) from the major thioredoxin(s) present in mitochondria-free
