Participation of Low Molecular Weight Electron Carriers in Oxidative Protein Folding

Participation of Low Molecular Weight Electron Carriers in Oxidative Protein Folding

Oxidative protein folding is mediated by a proteinaceous electron relay system, in which the concerted action of protein disulfide isomerase and Ero1 delivers the electrons from thiol groups to the final acceptor. Oxygen appears to be the final oxidant in aerobic living organisms, although the exist...
