Physiological relevance of covalent protein modification by dietary isothiocyanates
Isothiocyanates (ITCs), naturally occurring in abundance in cruciferous vegetables, are the most well-studied organosulfur compounds having an electrophilic reactivity. ITCs have been accepted as major ingredients of these vegetables that afford their health promoting potentials. ITCs are able to modulate protein functions related to drug-metabolizing enzymes, transporters, kinases and phosphat...
متن کاملInactivation of protein tyrosine phosphatases by dietary isothiocyanates.
Isothiocyanates are bioactive dietary phytochemicals that react readily with protein thiol groups. We find that isothiocyanates are time-dependent inactivators of cysteine-dependent protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Rate constants for the inactivation of PTP1B and SHP-2 by allyl isothiocyanate and sulforaphane range from 2 to 16 M(-1)s(-1). Results in the context of PTP1B are consistent wit...
متن کاملProteomic analysis of covalent modifications of tubulins by isothiocyanates.
Although isothiocyanates (ITC), which are found in cruciferous vegetables, have been shown to inhibit carcinogenesis in animal models and induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in tumor cells, the biochemical mechanisms of cell growth inhibition by these compounds are not fully understood. Studies have reported that ITC binding to intracellular proteins may be an important event for initiating ...
متن کاملMeasurement of protein phosphorylation by covalent modification of firefly luciferase.
A universal property o f cukaryotic cells is their ability to change state when activated o r attacked at the plasma membrane. Events triggered by physical, chemical and biological agents interacting with the plasma membrane include movement, secretion, differentiation, endocytosis, division or death. For such events to occur. intracellular signals, such as Ca?+ or cyclic nucleotides, must be g...
متن کاملCovalent modification of nitrogenase MoFe protein by ADP.
MgADP- reacted with the nitrogenase molybdenum-iron (MoFe) protein of Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp1) over a period of 2 h to yield a stable, catalytically active conjugate. The isolated protein exhibited a new, broad 31P NMR resonance at -1 p.p.m. lacking phosphorus J coupling. The adenine ring of [8-14C]ADP remained associated with the conjugate. A covalently bound nucleotide was identified as AM...
