Oxidative damage to proteins in yeast cells exposed to adaptive levels of H2O2

Abstract: When yeast cells are exposed to sublethal concentrations of oxidants, they adapt to tolerate subsequent lethal treatments. Here, we show that this adaptation involves tolerance of oxidative damage, rather than protection of cellular constituents. o- and m-tyrosine levels are used as a sensitive measure of protein oxidative damage and we show that such damage accumulates in yeast cells exposed to H(2)O(2) at low adaptive levels. Glutathione represents one of the main cellular protections against free radical at… Show more

“…Yeast pre-incubation with 0.5 mM hydrogen peroxide increased tolerance to 7.5 mM hydrogen peroxide for all yeast in this study (Figure 1E). Increased tolerance to hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress under constant exposure has been reported previously for S. cerevisiae [32]. …”

“…Free amino acids and amino acids in proteins are highly susceptible to oxidation by ROS (98). Oxidized amino acids can be detected in yeast cells; for example, oxidized phenylalanine (m-and o-Tyr) is elevated after exposure to similar concentrations of H 2 O 2 as those that activate Gcn2 (80). Although the levels of oxidized amino acids detected in yeast cells exposed to H 2 O 2 are relatively low, representing about one modification per 10 3 phenylalanine residues, the total oxidative load on the amino acid pool may trigger an amino acid starvation response.…”
