Abstract
The oxidative modification of specific cysteine residues to persulfides is thought to be the main way by which hydrogen sulfide (H2S) exerts its biological and signaling functions. Therefore, protein persulfidation represents an important thiol-switching mechanism as other reversible redox post-translational modifications. Considering their reductase activity but also their connections with proteins that generate H2S and its related molecules, the glutaredoxin (GRX) and thioredoxin (TRX)-reducing systems have potential dual roles in both protein persulfidation and depersulfidation. In this review, we will first focus on recent advances describing the physiological pathways leading to protein persulfidation before discussing the dual roles of the physiological TRX and glutathione/GRX-reducing systems in protein persulfidation/depersulfidation.

期刊介绍：
Antioxidants (ISSN 2076-3921), provides an advanced forum for studies related to the science and technology of antioxidants. It publishes research papers, reviews and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
