Example sentences for: cysteinyl

How can you use “cysteinyl” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Their data suggest that when cells encounter oxidative stress, a key cysteinyl residue near the active site of methionine synthase (MetE) is glutathionylated.

  • In the case of proteins that have a nearby cysteinyl residue, a disulfide bond forms between the two sulfur atoms.

  • The sulfenated cysteinyl residue also can react with a cysteinyl residue on another protein or with glutathione, leading to a mixed disulfide.

  • H 2 O 2 for its role in oxidizing thiol (SH) groups of cysteinyl amino acid residues in proteins.

  • As mentioned above, proteins—in particular, the thiols of cysteines—are the major targets of H 2 O 2 . The reaction of cysteinyl thiolates with H 2 O 2 can lead to the formation of different modifications, such as sulfenic acid (–SOH), sulfinic acid (–SO 2 H), and sulfonic acid (–SO3H), as well as disulfide bond formation (–S–S–) and glutathione conjugation (–S–GSH) (Jacob et al.
