“…S-glutathionylation, a well-documented protein S-thiolation modification formed between cysteine residues and low-molecularweight thiols such as glutathione, is induced in response to oxidative stress in eukaryotic and most GSH containing Gram-negative bacteria cells, and plays important roles in various biological processes, including cell signaling, metabolism and energy, redox homeostasis and protein degradation (Dalle-Donne et al, 2009;Mieyal and Chock, 2012;Shenton and Grant, 2003). Recently, six Sbacillithiolated proteins and 25 S-mycothiolated proteins, formed between cysteine residues and low-molecularweight thiols BSH (S-bacillithiolation) or MSH (Smycothiolation), respectively, were identified upon oxidative stress in B. subtilis and C. glutamicum (Chi et al, 2011(Chi et al, , 2014. MetE, one of the proteins most susceptible to oxidation, is subjected to all 3 kinds of S-thiolation modification, and plays a key role in linking oxidative stress and methionine availability (Chi et al, 2011(Chi et al, , 2013(Chi et al, , 2014Hondorp and Matthews, 2004).…”
