If you are interested in the highly dynamic quaternary structure of peroxiredoxins, take a look at our new paper... pnas.org/content/early/…

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is widely used as an "antioxidant". But do we understand what it is doing inside cells and organisms? Check out our review, by Brandán Pedre, @Vladi76320028 and Daria, now at Messens Lab: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

If you want to detect protein persulfides you need to trap them first… here we share a story that started with puzzling observations and led to new insights into the behavior of alkylating agents. Thanks to Aubry K. Miller for the nice collaboration. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Oxidative inactivation of GAPDH is a booster for reductive power. Tumor cells employ this mechanism to survive in the host and to resist therapy. Many thanks to our long-term collaborators Ralser Lab, Mick Milsom & Pavlo Lutsik nature.com/articles/s4225…
