Abstract
Thioredoxins are ubiquitous and conserved small proteins. The redox-active site is composed of highly conserved Cys32 and Cys35. In higher eukaryotes, thioredoxin evolved to a gain of function in nitrosative control, with 3 extra cysteines, Cys62, Cys69, and Cys73. Human thioredoxin 1 (hTrx) is directly involved in cellular signal transduction through S-nitrosation. The understanding of the mechanism of S-nitrosation is essential. Here we produced a mutant of hTrx containing only Cys62 (C62only). We report the almost full 1H, 15N, and 13C chemical shift assignment of the reduced and S-nitrosated C62only. This study will help to measure the reactivity Cys62 toward S-nitrosants and the stability of S-nitrosated Cys62.
