Cysteine oxidation is a crucial biochemical process whereby the thiol side chain of cysteine residues is modified by reactive oxygen species. These modifications, including sulfenylation and ...

This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

Earth's mantle is a restless, enigmatic engine that powers volcanism, recycles crust, and regulates the long-term evolution ...

Oxidation reduction potential (ORP), often known as redox potential, is the electric potential based on the equilibrium conditions between oxidants (M z+) and reductants (M (z-n)+) in a solution.

Scientists at the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (UCT Prague) have revealed a new catalytic role for scandium ...

Copper is an essential metal nutrient for life that often relies on redox cycling between Cu(I) and Cu(II) oxidation states to fulfill its physiological roles, but alterations in cellular redox status ...

The therapeutic efficacy of cuproptosis, ferroptosis, and apoptosis is hindered by inadequate intracellular copper and iron ...

Estuarine sediments are critical for the remediation of large amounts of anthropogenic nitrogen (N) loading via production of N₂ from nitrate by denitrification. However, nitrate is also recycled ...

Just over a year ago, NASA made a remarkable announcement. The Perseverance rover had found potential signs of ancient life ...
