The net result is the covalent interconversion of a disulfide and a dithiol.
2.
Thioredoxin is a 12-kD oxidoreductase enzyme containing a dithiol-disulfide active site.
3.
Following a single reduction, RNR requires electrons donated from the dithiol groups of the protein thioredoxin.
4.
In the 1960s, BAL was modified into DMSA, a related dithiol with far fewer side effects.
5.
A "'dithiol "'is a type of organosulfur compound with two thiol functional groups.
6.
The reduced ( dithiol ) form of PDI is able to catalyse a reduction of mispaired thiol residues of a particular substrate, acting as an isomerase.
7.
This dithiol then donates electrons to the periplasmic C-terminal thioredoxin motif ( CXXC ) of DsbD, thereby reducing C461 and C464 ( C6 and C7, respectively ).
8.
Research in the former Soviet Union led to the introduction of ALA, which is transformed by the body into the dithiol dihydrolipoic acid, a mercury-and arsenic-chelating agent.
9.
"' 1, 3-Propanedithiol "'is the chemical compound with the formula HSCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 SH . This dithiol is a useful reagent in organic synthesis.
10.
By modulating the distance between the two pairs of cysteine residues and the space between the arsenic centers of FlAsH-EDT 2, a cooperative and entropically favored dithiol arsenic bond could be achieved.
