title: Oxidative modifications in nitrosative stress.
abstract: The molecular basis of redox sensitivity in proteins is not well understood. Here we consider a continuum of NO- and O2-related modifications of cysteine residues that constitute biological signaling events on the one hand and hallmarks of nitrosative and oxidative stresses on the other.
