Protein S-glutathionylation (PSSG)

Target
PSSG
Molecular classification
Post-translational modification, Redox modification
01

Overview

Protein S-glutathionylation is a reversible post-translational modification involving the covalent attachment of glutathione (GSH) to cysteine residues in proteins. This modification regulates protein structure, activity, and interactions, playing a critical role in redox signaling and protection against irreversible cysteine oxidation. Dysregulation is implicated in various diseases including cancer, cardiovascular dysfunction, and neurodegeneration.
