Abstract

The tripeptide glutathione (gamma-L-Glu-L-Cys-Gly, GSH) is an important intracellular reducing agent for Cu(II) and complexation agent for Cu(I). We have studied the complexation of Cu(I) to GSH in aqueous solution at a range of pH values and Cu(I):GSH molar ratios by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The NMR data are consistent with formation of a complex with approximate 1:1 stoichiometry [Cu(SG)] as the major species with only thiolate sulfur of GSH binding to Cu(I). The rate of exchange of GSH with GS-Cu was determined to 13 s(-1) at 283 K, pH 6.8. X-ray absorption spectroscopic measurements showed that Cu(I) is coordinated to 3.1+/-0.3 sulfur atoms at approximately 0.222 nm in solutions (and solids) containing GSH:Cu in 1:1 and 2:1 mol ratios. The possible structures of polymeric Cu(I)-glutathione complexes are discussed. The high thermodynamic stability of Cu(I)-S bonds in Cu(I)-glutathione complexes coupled with their kinetic lability may provide efficient and specific pathways for the transport of copper in cells.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide
