Redox regulation of photosynthetic gene expression.
Redox chemistry and redox regulation are central to the operation of photosynthesis and respiration. However, the roles of different oxidants and antioxidants in the regulation of photosynthetic or respiratory gene expression remain poorly understood. Leaf transcriptome profiles of a range of Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes that are deficient in either hydrogen peroxide processing enzymes or in ...
متن کاملChapter 11: Gene Expression Biomarkers and Longevity
Chronological age, a count of how many orbits of the sun an individual has made as a passenger of planet earth, is a useful but limited proxy of aging processes. Some individuals die of age related diseases in their sixties, while others live to double that age. As a result, a great deal of effort has been put into identifying biomarkers that reflect the underlying biological changes involved i...
متن کاملThiol-based redox switches and gene regulation.
Cysteine is notable among the universal, proteinogenic amino acids for its facile redox chemistry. Cysteine thiolates are readily modified by reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive electrophilic species (RES), and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Although thiol switches are commonly triggered by disulfide bond formation, they can also be controlled by S-thiolation, S-alkylation, or modificatio...
متن کاملAntioxidant and redox regulation of gene transcription.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in the pathogenesis of a wide variety of human diseases. Recent evidence suggests that at moderately high concentrations, certain forms of ROS such as H202 may act as signal transduction messengers. To develop a better understanding of the exact mechanisms that underlie ROS-dependent disorders in biological systems, recent studies have investigated t...
متن کاملRedox regulation of chemokine receptor expression.
Cytokines and reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) are frequent companions at sites of acute inflammation. We have shown previously that in human monocytes, bacterial lipopolysaccharide, IL-1, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha induce a rapid down-regulation of the monocyte chemotactic protein-1 receptor CCR2 (CC chemokine receptor-2). These stimuli also induce production of ROI. In this paper, we ...
