Biological context of SPBC17A3.07

 

Associations of SPBC17A3.07 with chemical compounds

  • Repression of nmt1 promoter-driven pgr1(+) expression by thiamine caused cessation of growth, which was rescued by the episomal pgr1(+) gene [1].
  • We also show the inactivation of glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase in the presence of various reactive nitrogen species in vivo [5].
  • Effect of nitrosative stress on Schizosaccharomyces pombe: inactivation of glutathione reductase by peroxynitrite [5].
  • The presence of 0.2 mM H2O2 induced catalase by 2.8-fold and peroxidase by 2.0-fold The presence of 0.2 mM MD induced catalase by 2.0-fold, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase by 1.9-fold, glutathione reductase by 2.7-fold, peroxidase by 3.0-fold, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) by 2.1-fold [6].
  • These data strongly suggested that, instead of GSH, the NADPH/GR system was the major one-electron Cr(VI) reductant in vivo [7].
