Redox-dependent transcriptional regulation.
Reactive oxygen species contribute to the pathogenesis of a number of disparate disorders including tissue inflammation, heart failure, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. In response to oxidative stress, cells activate expression of a number of genes, including those required for the detoxification of reactive molecules as well as for the repair and maintenance of cellular homeostasis. In many ...
متن کاملZinc-Dependent Transcriptional Regulation in Paracoccus denitrificans
Zinc homeostasis is critical for bacterial survival and is mediated largely at the transcriptional level by the regulation of zinc uptake and efflux genes. Here we use RNA-seq to assess transcriptional changes as a result of zinc limitation in the denitrifying bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans. The results identify the differential expression of 147 genes, most of which were upregulated in zin...
متن کاملRedox Regulation of Cysteine-Dependent Enzymes in Neurodegeneration
Evidence of increased oxidative stress has been found in various neurodegenerative diseases and conditions. While it is unclear whether oxidative stress is a cause or effect, protein, lipid, and DNA have all been found to be susceptible to oxidant-induced modifications that alter their function. Results of clinical trials based on the oxidative-stress theory have been mixed, though data continu...
متن کاملPosttranslational Modification of Human Glyoxalase 1 Indicates Redox-Dependent Regulation
BACKGROUND Glyoxalase 1 (Glo1) and glyoxalase 2 (Glo2) are ubiquitously expressed cytosolic enzymes that catalyze the conversion of toxic alpha-oxo-aldehydes into the corresponding alpha-hydroxy acids using L-glutathione (GSH) as a cofactor. Human Glo1 exists in various isoforms; however, the nature of its modifications and their distinct functional assignment is mostly unknown. METHODOLOGY/P...
متن کاملSelenomethionine regulation of p53 by a ref1-dependent redox mechanism.
The cancer chemopreventive properties of selenium compounds are well documented, yet little is known of the mechanism(s) by which these agents inhibit carcinogenesis. We show that selenium in the form of selenomethionine (SeMet) can activate the p53 tumor suppressor protein by a redox mechanism that requires the redox factor Ref1. Assays to measure direct reduction/oxidation of p53 showed a SeM...
