Abstract

J. Neurochem.(2010) 10.1111/j.1471‐4159.2010.06580.x Nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are well established as messenger molecules throughout the body, gasotransmitters, based on striking alterations in mice lacking the appropriate biosynthetic enzymes. Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is even more chemically reactive, but until recently there was little definitive evidence for its physiologic formation. Cystathionine β‐synthase (EC 4.2.1.22), and cystathionine γ‐lyase (CSE; EC 4.4.1.1), also known as cystathionine, can generate H 2 S from cyst(e)ine. Very recent studies with mice lacking these enzymes have established that CSE is responsible for H 2 S formation in the periphery, while in the brain cystathionine β‐synthase is the biosynthetic enzyme. Endothelial‐derived relaxing factor activity is reduced 80% in the mesenteric artery of mice with deletion of CSE, establishing H 2 S as a major physiologic endothelial‐derived relaxing factor. H 2 S appears to signal predominantly by S‐sulfhydrating cysteines in its target proteins, analogous to S‐nitrosylation by NO. Whereas S‐nitrosylation typically inhibits enzymes,S‐sulfhydration activates them.S‐nitrosylation basally affects 1–2% of its target proteins, while 10–25% of H 2 S target proteins are S‐sulfhydrated. In summary, H 2 S appears to be a physiologic gasotransmitter of comparable importance to NO and carbon monoxide.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
