Abstract excerpt
Glycerladehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a classic glycolytic enzyme, also has a role in mediating cell death under oxidative stress. Our previous reports suggest that oxidative stress-induced GAPDH aggregate formation is, at least in part, a mechanism to account for the death signaling. Here we show that substitution of cysteine for serine-284 of human GAPDH (S284C-GAPDH) leads to aggregate-prone GAPDH,...
