چکیده
A small-molecule cysteine sulfenic acid (Cys–SOH) with ‘shelf stability’ protected by a molecular cradle was synthesized direct oxidation of thiol H2O2. Its crystal structure and biologically relevant reactivity were elucidated.

Profiling the reactivity of cyclic C-nucleophiles towards electrophilic sulfur in cysteine sulfenic acid
Oxidation of a protein cysteine thiol to sulfenic acid, termed S-sulfenylation, is a reversible posttranslational modification that plays a crucial role in regulating protein function and is correlated with disease states. The majority of reaction-based small molecule and immunochemical probes used for detecting sulfenic acids are based on the 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (dimedone) scaffo...
متن کاملThe OhrR repressor senses organic hydroperoxides by reversible formation of a cysteine-sulfenic acid derivative.
Reactive oxygen species induce the expression of detoxification and repair genes critical for life in an aerobic environment. Bacterial factors that sense reactive oxygen species use either thiol-disulfide exchange reactions (OxyR, RsrA) or redox labile 2Fe-2S clusters (SoxR). We demonstrate that the reduced form of Bacillus subtilis OhrR binds cooperatively to two adjacent inverted repeat sequ...
متن کاملFunctional site profiling and electrostatic analysis of cysteines modifiable to cysteine sulfenic acid.
Cysteine sulfenic acid (Cys-SOH), a reversible modification, is a catalytic intermediate at enzyme active sites, a sensor for oxidative stress, a regulator of some transcription factors, and a redox-signaling intermediate. This post-translational modification is not random: specific features near the cysteine control its reactivity. To identify features responsible for the propensity of cystein...
متن کاملThe requirement of reversible cysteine sulfenic acid formation for T cell activation and function.
Reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) generated in response to receptor stimulation play an important role in mediating cellular responses. We have examined the importance of reversible cysteine sulfenic acid formation in naive CD8(+) T cell activation and proliferation. We observed that, within minutes of T cell activation, naive CD8(+) T cells increased ROI levels in a manner dependent upon Ag ...
متن کاملMechanism of the cysteine sulfenic acid O-sulfenylation of 1,3-cyclohexanedione.
The density functionals B3LYP, B3PW91, M062X, and CAM-B3LYP with the 6-311+G(d,p) basis set predict the cysteine sulfenic acid O-sulfenylation of the s-cis-ketoenol tautomer of 1,3-cyclohexanedione proceeds through a cyclic 14-membered transition state structure containing three water molecules.
