... The present paper describes general principles of redox catalysis and redox regulation in two diverse systems. The first is microbial metabolism of CO by the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway, which involves the conversion of CO or H 2 /CO 2 into acetyl-CoA, which then serves as a source of ATP and cell carbon...

... the extracellular environment is an oxidizing one, while the cytosol is a reducing one, owing to the high concentrations of GSH and the high GSH/GSSG ratio. The overall concept of redox regulation is based on the fact that many cysteine residues that, in theory (according to the databases), are in the reduced...

... 2006 © 2006 The Biochemical Society 2006 Thiol modification of RyR leads to altered sensitivity of the channel to Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ and ATP and critical protein interactions, and is manifested by changes in channel activity. Redox regulation of channel activity depends on the degree and type...
