Efficient oxidation of cysteine and glutathione catalyzed by a dinuclear areneruthenium trithiolato anticancer complex.
The highly cytotoxic diruthenium complex [(p-MeC(6)H(4)Pr(i))(2)Ru(2)(SC(6)H(4)-p-Me)(3)](+) (1), water-soluble as the chloride salt, is shown to efficiently catalyze oxidation of the thiols cysteine and glutathione to give the corresponding disulfides, which may explain its high in vitro anticancer activity.
متن کاملThe Oxidation of Glutathione by Serum.
Studies of serum glutathione reductase activity in thislaboratory prompted an attempt to demonstrate glutathione oxidase in the serum. The oxidation of reduced glutathione in the sera of patients with various diseases does not differ from normal sera. Preheating the serum and addition of cytochrome c does not effect the oxidizing capacity of the serum. The ability of serum to oxidize reduced gl...
متن کاملTyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of fluorophenols.
The activity of the type 3 copper enzyme tyrosinase toward 2-, 3-, and 4-fluorophenol was studied by kinetic methods and (1)H and (19)F NMR spectroscopy. Whereas 3- and 4-fluorophenol react with tyrosinase to give products that undergo a rapid polymerization process, 2-fluorophenol is not reactive and actually acts as a competitive inhibitor in the enzymatic oxidation of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalan...
متن کاملOxidation induced by the antioxidant glutathione (GSH).
Remarkably efficient oxygen atom transfer from an intermediate of glutathione (GSH) autoxidation to an organometallic ruthenium arene thiolato complex is observed under physiologically-relevant conditions.
متن کاملCytosolic Glutathione Busulfan-Glutathione Conjugation Catalyzed by Human Liver
We have examined the catalytic activity of glutathione .S'-transferases (GST) in the conjugation of busulfan with glutathione (GSH) in human liver cytosol. purified human liver GST. and cDNA-expressed GST-al-1. Human liver microsomes and cytosol were incubated with 40 /IM busulfan and 1 m\i (.SII. Cytosol catalyzed the formation of the GSH-husulfan tetrahydrothiophenium ion i III I ' i in a con...
