The cysteine-rich protein thimet oligopeptidase as a model of the structural requirements for S-glutathiolation and oxidative oligomerization.
Thimet oligopeptidase (EP24.15) is a cysteine-rich metallopeptidase containing fifteen Cys residues and no intra-protein disulfide bonds. Previous work on this enzyme revealed that the oxidative oligomerization of EP24.15 is triggered by S-glutathiolation at physiological GSSG levels (10-50 µM) via...
