Creator:: Chavez, Juan D.
Abstract:: Oxidative stress is recognized as an important underlying factor in the pathogenesis of many degenerative diseases as well as normal senescence. The free radicals, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and electrophiles produced during oxidative stress are capable of modifying nucleic acids, lipids and proteins. There are a variety of oxidative modifications...

Creator:: Nirudodhi, Sasidhar N.
Abstract:: Proteins are essential to all biological systems. Proteins participate in numerous cellular processes by interacting with other proteins, other metabolites and membranes in a dynamic environment. Studying the structural and conformational properties of proteins in the solution phase is necessary to understand their protein folding and interaction dynamics. This research...

Creator:: Wang, Jing
Abstract:: Dysfunction of mitochondria has been linked to aging and the pathogenesis of many degenerative diseases. Aside from their primary function in energy production, mitochondria are considered as a major source and target of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) in cells as well. The mitochondrial thiol proteome is a subset...

Creator:: Tong, Tony T.
Abstract:: Mitochondria provide energy for biological cells to function, but this process is also a source of oxygen radicals that are capable of damaging nearby proteins. Mitochondrial protein damage can eventually lead to cell death, especially in the case of heart cells, where mitochondria are present in the highest concentrations. As...
