General description
Cysteine residues in certain proteins can be oxidized transiently to cysteine sulfenic acid, and such oxidation events may affect enzymatic activity and thus regulate signaling pathways. Most proteins containing cysteine sulfenic acid only do so when the cell contains elevated levels of reactive oxygen species although some proteins, such as GAPDH, appear to contain cysteine sulfenic acid under ordinary conditions.
The most commonly used method for assessing whether proteins are modified to contain cysteine sulfenic acid employs derivitization with 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (dimedone), and subsequent detection with an antibody against dimedone-modified proteins. However, new reagents have been developed to simplify the analysis and isolation of proteins bearing cysteine sulfenic acid. DCP-Bio1, which consists of the sulfenic acid-reactive 3-(2,4-dioxocyclohexyl) propyl (DCP) appended to biotin, is a useful reagent for characterizing cellular cysteine sulfenic acid.
