Redox active motifs in selenoproteins.
Selenoproteins use the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) to act as the first line of defense against oxidants, which are linked to aging, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Many selenoproteins are oxidoreductases in which the reactive Sec is connected to a neighboring Cys and able to form a ring. These Sec-containing redox motifs govern much of the reactivity of selenoproteins. To study...
متن کاملRegulation of inflammation and redox signaling by dietary polyphenols.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in enhancing the inflammation through the activation of NF-kappaB and AP-1 transcription factors, and nuclear histone acetylation and deacetylation in various inflammatory diseases. Such undesired effects of oxidative stress have been found to be controlled by the antioxidant and/or anti-inflammatory effects of dietary polyphenols such as curcumin (...
متن کاملDynamic Redox Regulation of IL-4 Signaling
Quantifying the magnitude and dynamics of protein oxidation during cell signaling is technically challenging. Computational modeling provides tractable, quantitative methods to test hypotheses of redox mechanisms that may be simultaneously operative during signal transduction. The interleukin-4 (IL-4) pathway, which has previously been reported to induce reactive oxygen species and oxidation of...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis: Regulation by redox signalling
Photosynthesis is light-driven redox chemistry. Molecular redox signalling, the coupling of gene expression to electron transfer, is now implicated in the adaptation of photosynthesis to variation in light quality and quantity.
متن کاملRedox regulation of auxin signaling and plant development in Arabidopsis.
Thioredoxin (NTR/TRX) and glutathione (GSH/GRX) are the two major systems which play a key role in the maintenance of cellular redox homeostasis. They are essential for plant development, cell division or the response to environmental stresses. In a recent article, we studied the interplay between the NADP-linked thioredoxin and glutathione systems in auxin signaling genetically, by associating...
