Direct cysteine sulfenylation drives activation of the Src kinase
The activity of several protein kinases is increased upon cellular production of reactive oxygen species, which can cause cysteine oxidation. Here the authors show that sulfenylation of specific cysteine residues within Src induce local structural changes that directly impact its activation.
