Western blot analysis of the glutathionylated proteins in MMRU cell lysates. Left lane: non-reduced sample (without DTT); Right lane: sample boiled with DTT.
Glutathione is a tripeptide. It contains an unusual peptide linkage between the amine group of cysteine and the carboxyl group of the glutamate side chain. Glutathione, an antioxidant, protects cells from toxins such as free radicals. Glutathione can also modify proteins via disulfide bonds. Redox proteomics of glutathionylated proteins in oxidatively stressed human T lymphocytes have been reported.
