Application

  • Aldrithiol-4 was used as cosubstrate in a study to develop highly specific inhibitors against mannose-binding lectin-associated serine proteases by in vitro evolution technology:phage display.
  • It was used to study the O2 equilibria of recombinant human neuroglobin and cytoglobin measured under close to physiological conditions.
  • It was used to modify gold surfaces for protein studies.

The effect of oxidants on Ca(2+) movement in osteoblasts is unclear. In this study, we show that 4,4'-dithiodipyridine (4,4'-DTDP), a reactive disulphide that mobilizes Ca(2+) in muscle, induces an increase in cytoplasmic free-Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in MG63 human osteosarcoma cells

Dipyridyl disulfide (DPS) is a highly reactive thiol oxidant that functions as electron acceptor in thiol-disulfide exchange reactions. DPS is very toxic to yeasts, impairing growth at low micromolar concentrations. The genes TRX2 (thioredoxin), SOD1 (superoxide dismutase), GSH1 (gamma-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase)

Experimental determination of the number of thiols in a protein requires methodology that combines high sensitivity and reproducibility with low intrinsic thiol oxidation disposition. In detection of disulfide bonds, it is also necessary to efficiently reduce disulfides and to quantify

To understand better the modulation of ryanodine receptors (RyRs) during oxidative stress, the effect of 4,4'-dithiodipyridine (DTDP), a cell-permeant and thiol-reactive oxidant, on global Ca(2+) signal and spontaneous Ca(2+) sparks of rat ventricular myocytes was investigated. It was shown that
