Efficient nitrosation of glutathione by nitric oxide☆
Nitrosothiols are increasingly regarded as important participants in a range of physiological processes, yet little is known about their biological generation. Nitrosothiols can be formed from the corresponding thiols by nitric oxide in a reaction that requires the presence of oxygen and is mediated by reactive intermediates (NO₂ or N₂O₃) formed in the course of NO autoxidation. Because the aut...
متن کاملThe spin-correlated radical pair as a reaction intermediate
The concept of the spin-correlated radical pair has been used for some time in the interpretation of the results of magnetic polarization experiments in NMR and in ESR (CIDNP and CIDEP), and of the effects of magnetic fields on chemical reactions. It has, however, a much wider general significance as a reaction intermediate in all radical reactions, including photochemistry. Here the nature of ...
متن کاملAmino acid nitrosation products as alkylating agents.
Nitrosation reactions of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-amino acids whose reaction products can act as alkylating agents of DNA were investigated. To approach in vivo conditions for the two-step mechanism (nitrosation and alkylation), nitrosation reactions were carried out in aqueous acid conditions (mimicking the conditions of the stomach lumen) while the alkylating potential of the nitrosation prod...
متن کاملJava as an Intermediate Language
We present our experiences in using Java as an intermediate language for the high level program ming language Nesl First we describe the design and implementation of a system for translating Vcode the current intermediate language used by Nesl into Java Second we evaluate this translation by comparing the performance of the original Vcode implementation with several vari ants of the Java implem...
متن کاملNitrosation of cysteine and reduced glutathione by nitrite at physiological pH.
Unlike the formation of nitrosothiols by nitrous acid, our study revealed that NO2- effectively reacted with L-cysteine or reduced glutathione (GSH) at pH 7.0 and 7.4, to form orange-pink products of S-nitrosocysteine (CySNO) or S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). The reactions were in a concentration-dependent manner. These products exhibited not only peak absorbances at around 340 and 540 nm, but al...
