Scientists discuss in "Redox-active cysteines of a membrane electron transporter DsbD show dual compartment accessibility" new findings in life sciences. "The membrane-embedded domain of the unusual electron transporter DsbD (DsbDbeta) uses two redox-active cysteines to catalyze electron transfer between thioredoxin-fold polypeptides on opposite sides of the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane. How the electrons are transferred across the membrane is unknown," scientists in the United States report.
"Here, we show that DsbDbeta displays an inherent functional and structural symmetry: first, the two cysteines of DsbDbeta can be alkylated from both the cytoplasm and the...
