Hemoglobin, Myoglobin and Neuroglobin in Endogenous Thiosulfate Production Processes
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Role of Hemoproteins: Hemoglobin, Myoglobin and Neuroglobin in Endogenous Thiosulfate Production Processes Anna Bilska-Wilkosz *, Małgorzata Iciek, Magdalena Górny and Danuta Kowalczyk-Pachel Chair of Medical Biochemistry, Jagiellonian University Collegium Medicum ,7 Kopernika Street, Kraków 31-034, Poland; [email protected] (M.I.); [email protected] (M.G.); [email protected] (D.K.-P.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-12-4227-400; Fax: +48-12-4223-272 Received: 5 May 2017; Accepted: 16 June 2017; Published: 20 June 2017 Abstract: Thiosulfate formation and biodegradation processes link aerobic and anaerobic metabolism of cysteine. In these reactions, sulfite formed from thiosulfate is oxidized to sulfate while hydrogen sulfide is transformed into thiosulfate. These processes occurring mostly in mitochondria are described as a canonical hydrogen sulfide oxidation pathway. In this review, we discuss the current state of knowledge on the interactions between hydrogen sulfide and hemoglobin, myoglobin and neuroglobin and postulate that thiosulfate is a metabolically important product of this processes. Hydrogen sulfide oxidation by ferric hemoglobin, myoglobin and neuroglobin has been defined as a non-canonical hydrogen sulfide oxidation pathway. Until recently, it appeared that the goal of thiosulfate production was to delay irreversible oxidation of hydrogen sulfide to sulfate excreted in urine; while thiosulfate itself was only an intermediate, transient metabolite on the hydrogen sulfide oxidation pathway. In the light of data presented in this paper, it seems that thiosulfate is a molecule that plays a prominent role in the human body. Thus, we hope that all these findings will encourage further studies on the role of hemoproteins in the formation of this undoubtedly fascinating molecule and on the mechanisms responsible for its biological activity in the human body. -

The thyroid gland is found in the neck, below the thyroid cartilage (which forms the laryngeal prominence, or "Adam's apple"). The isthmus (the bridge between the two lobes of the thyroid) is located inferior to the cricoid cartilage. The thyroid gland controls how quickly the body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls how sensitive the body is to other hormones. It participates in these processes by producing thyroid hormones, the principal ones being triiodothyronine (T ) and thyroxine which can sometimes be referred to as tetraiodothyronine (T ). These hormones 3 4 regulate the rate of metabolism and affect the growth and rate of function of many other systems in the body. T and 3 T are synthesized from both iodine and tyrosine. -

INTRODUCTION. The chief problem which has stood in the way of the development of the chemistry of the rare earth metals has been that of finding adequate methods for the separation of the ele- ments comprising the group. For this reason, these elements have been, up to the present time, of little other than purely scien- tific interest. However, the comparatively recent discovery of many important industrial uses for other of the rarer elements, hitherto also considered of interest only in the laboratory, in- dicates the probability of finding for the rare earth metals uses which will be no less important. -
Recent Developments on the Origin and Nature of Reductive Sulfurous Off-Odours in Wine
fermentation Review Recent Developments on the Origin and Nature of Reductive Sulfurous Off-Odours in Wine Nikolaus Müller 1,* and Doris Rauhut 2 1 Silvanerweg 9, 55595 Wallhausen, Germany 2 Department of Microbiology and Biochemistry, Hochschule Geisenheim University, Von-Lade-Straße 1, 65366 Geisenheim, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-6706-913103 Received: 9 July 2018; Accepted: 3 August 2018; Published: 8 August 2018 Abstract: Reductive sulfurous off-odors are still one of the main reasons for rejecting wines by consumers. In 2008 at the International Wine Challenge in London, approximately 6% of the more than 10,000 wines presented were described as faulty. Twenty-eight percent were described as faulty because they presented “reduced characters” similar to those presented by “cork taint” and in nearly the same portion. Reductive off-odors are caused by low volatile sulfurous compounds. Their origin may be traced back to the metabolism of the microorganisms (yeasts and lactic acid bacteria) involved in the fermentation steps during wine making, often followed by chemical conversions. The main source of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) are precursors from the sulfate assimilation pathway (SAP, sometimes named as the “sulfate reduction pathway” SRP), used by yeast to assimilate sulfur from the environment and incorporate it into the essential sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine. Reductive off-odors became of increasing interest within the last few years, and the method to remove them by treatment with copper (II) salts (sulfate or citrate) is more and more questioned: The effectiveness is doubted, and after prolonged bottle storage, they reappear quite often. -

A review of the literature shows that there have been several methods of preparing telluric acid. Meyer and Franke (4) oxidized the elementary tellurium with a mixture of barium chlorate and sulfuric acid. Krepelka and Kubik (2) oxidized the elementary tellurium with 30 percent hydrogen peroxide, but their method necessitated using a 10-15 fold excess of the oxidizing agent. Staundenmaier (9) reacted a mixture of nitric and chromic acids with tellurium dioxide to effect oxidation to telluric acid. The procedure as developed by Mathers et al. (3) is the most widely used. Crude tellurium dioxide is purified and then oxidized by a slight excess of permanganate in a hot solution of about five molar nitric acid. -
