Saccharomyces cerevisiae Grx6 and Grx7 are monothiol glutaredoxins associated with the early secretory pathway

Izquierdo Álvarez, Alicia; Casas Herranz, Celia; Mühlenhoff, Ulrich; Lillig, Christopher Horst; Herrero Perpiñán, Enrique (American Society for Microbiology, 2008)

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Grx6 and Grx7 are two monothiol glutaredoxins whose active-site sequences (CSYS and CPYS, respectively) are reminiscent of the CPYC active-site sequence of classical dithiol glutaredoxins. Both ...
Selenite-induced cell death in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: protective role of glutaredoxins

Izquierdo Álvarez, Alicia; Casas Herranz, Celia; Herrero Perpiñán, Enrique (Society for General Microbiology, 2010)

Unlike in higher organisms, selenium is not essential for growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this species, it causes toxic effects at high concentrations. In the present study, we show that when supplied as selenite ...
