Hyperoxidation of Peroxiredoxins and Effects on Physiology of <i>Drosophila</i>
The catalytic activity of peroxiredoxins (Prx) is determined by the conserved peroxidatic cysteine (Cys<sub>P</sub>), which reacts with peroxides to form sulfenic acid (Cys-SOH). Under conditions of oxidative stress, Cys<sub>P</sub> is oxidized to catalytically inactive sulfi...
