These biological modifications include sulfenylation and disulfide 23 17 March 2015 formation, formation of higher oxidation states, S-nitrosylation, persulfidation, metalation, and other Accepted 22 March 2015 24 modifications. Extensive knowledge about these systems and their compartmentalization now provides 25 a foundation to develop advanced integrative models of Cys proteome regulation. In particular, detailed Keywords: 26 understanding of redox signaling pathways and sensing networks is becoming available to allow the Cysteine proteome discrimination of network structures.
