Oxidação de proteínas por oxigênio singlete: mecanismos de dano, estratégias para detecção e implicações biológicas Singlet oxygen-mediated protein oxidation: damage mechanisms, detection techniques and biological implication
<abstract language="eng">Proteins are potential targets for singlet molecular oxygen (¹O2) oxidation. Damages occur only at tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, methionine, and cysteine residues at physiological pH, generating oxidized compounds such as hydroperoxides. Therefore, it is i...
