Protein thiyl radical mediates S-glutathionylation of complex I.

Complex I is a critical site of O(2)(*-) production and the major host of reactive protein thiols in mitochondria. In response to oxidative stress, complex I protein thiols at the 51- and 75-kDa subunits are reversibly

BCNU-induced gR2 defect mediates S-glutathionylation of Complex I and respiratory uncoupling in myocardium.

A deficiency of mitochondrial glutathione reductase (or GR2) is capable of adversely affecting the reduction of GSSG and increasing mitochondrial oxidative stress. BCNU [1,3-bis (2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea] is an anticancer agent and known…
