Redox Signaling Regulated by Cysteine Persulfide and Protein Polysulfidation

Redox Signaling Regulated by Cysteine Persulfide and Protein Polysulfidation

For decades, reactive persulfide species including cysteine persulfide (CysSSH) have been known to exist endogenously in organisms. However, the physiological significance of endogenous persulfides remains poorly understood. That cystathionine β-synthase and cystathionine γ-lyase produced CysSSH fro...
