Structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis methionine sulfoxide reductase A in complex with protein-bound methionine.
Peptide methionine sulfoxide reductase (MsrA) repairs oxidative damage to methionine residues arising from reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen intermediates. MsrA activity is found in a wide variety of organisms, and it is implicated as one of the primary defenses against oxidative stress. Disruption of the gene encoding MsrA in several pathogenic bacteria responsible for infections i...

Enzymatic reduction of the methylsulfinylxylofuranosyl (MSX) groups in lipoarabinomannan provides proof of the absolute configuration of MSX and a possible biochemical mechanism for oxidative protection in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
متن کاملMethionine sulfoxide reduction and assimilation in Escherichia coli: new role for the biotin sulfoxide reductase BisC.
Methionine ranks among the amino acids most sensitive to oxidation, which converts it to a racemic mixture of methionine-S-sulfoxide (Met-S-SO) and methionine-R-sulfoxide (Met-R-SO). The methionine sulfoxide reductases MsrA and MsrB reduce free and protein-bound MetSO, MsrA being specific for Met-S-SO and MsrB for Met-R-SO. In the present study, we report that an Escherichia coli metB1 auxotrop...
متن کاملPeptide methionine sulfoxide reductase from Escherichia coli and Mycobacterium tuberculosis protects bacteria against oxidative damage from reactive nitrogen intermediates.
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) plays an important role in host defense. Macrophages expressing iNOS release the reactive nitrogen intermediates (RNI) nitrite and S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), which are bactericidal in vitro at a pH characteristic of the phagosome of activated macrophages. We sought to characterize the active intrabacterial forms of these RNI and their molecular targets. ...
متن کاملMethionine sulfoxide reductase (MsrA) is a regulator of antioxidant defense and lifespan in mammals.
Oxidation of proteins by reactive oxygen species is associated with aging, oxidative stress, and many diseases. Although free and protein-bound methionine residues are particularly sensitive to oxidation to methionine sulfoxide derivatives, these oxidations are readily repaired by the action of methionine sulfoxide reductase (MsrA). To gain a better understanding of the biological roles of MsrA...
