Tissue transglutaminase (TG2) is a multifunctional protein that plays biological roles based on its ability to catalyse protein cross-linking and to function as a non-canonical G-protein known as Ghα. The...
Cysteine (Cys) residues contain a redox-sensitive thiol and are commonly found in enzyme active sites. In recent years, the presence of a reactive thiolate group on a protein has been...
Human tissue transglutaminase (hTG2) is a multifunctional enzyme with protein cross-linking and G-protein activity, both of which have been implicated in the progression of diseases such as fibrosis and cancer...
Nucleophilic cysteine (Cys) residues are present in many enzyme active sites and represent the target of many different irreversible enzyme inhibitors. Given its fine balance between aqueous stability and thiolate...
Irreversible enzyme inhibitors bind covalently to their target and permanently limit its function. The redox-sensitive thiol group on the side chain of cysteine (Cys) residues is often the nucleophilic group...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
