Investigations into Intracellular Thiols of Biological Importance

The presence of thiols in living systems is critical for the maintenance of cellular redox homeostasis, the maintenance of protein thiol-disulfide ratios and the protection of cells from reactive oxygen species. In addition to the well studied tripeptide glutathione (??-Glu-Cys-Gly), a number of com...
