Abstract excerpt
Eukaryotic protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a 55-kDa enzyme with cysteine oxidoreductase, chaperone, and antichaperone activities that catalyzes disulfide formation and rearrangement in the eukaryotic endoplasmic reticulum. In Gram-negative bacteria, the formation of disulfide bonds in the periplasm is mediated by DsbA, a strong cysteine oxidase but an inefficient catalyst of disulfide bond isomerization with...
