The biological significance of oxidative modifications of cysteine residues in proteins illustrated with the example of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a key redox-sensitive protein, the activity of which is largely affected by oxidative modifications at its highly reactive cysteine residue in the active site of the enzyme (Cys-152). These modifications occur as a result of S-thiolation, S-nitrosy...
