Cysteine trisulfide oxidizes protein thiols and induces electrophilic stress in human cells
The cellular effects of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) signaling may be partially mediated by the formation of alkyl persulfides from thiols, such as glutathione and protein cysteine residues. Persulfides are potent nucleophiles and reductants and therefore potentially an important endogenous antioxidant or...
