Given the reversibility of thiol oxidations and the wide range of structural constraints that can be imposed by the formation of a sulfenic or sulfinic acid or a disulfide bond, we predict there will be many more examples of regulation by thiol modification.
OhrR transcription regulator contains only a single cysteine that forms a relatively stable sulfenic acid upon its reaction with H 2 O 2 or organic peroxides (Fuangthong and Helmann 2002).
Recent progress in this field points to a common chemistry in the reaction of H 2 O 2 with thiolates through the initial formation of sulfenic acid.
In this case, H 2 O 2 reacts with a cysteine in Orp1, forming an unstable sulfenic acid intermediate that then reacts with a cysteinyl residue of Yap1 to form an intermolecular disulfide.
The unusually reactive cysteine in OxyR that is oxidized by H 2 O 2 to form the sulfenic acid intermediate can clearly be nitrosylated and glutathionylated in vitro (Hausladen et al.
