Protein S-thiolation and oxidative stress in plants

The tripeptides glutathione (GSH; γglutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine) and homoglutathione (hGSH; γglutamyl-cysteinyl-β-alanine) are abundant cytosolic tripeptides in legumes. The reactive cysteinyl sulphydryl group enables GSH or hGSH to act as the major cellular redox buffer through the formation of disul...
