Reversible and irreversible protein glutathionylation: biological and clinical aspects

In the article ‘Reversible and irreversible protein glutathionylation: biological and clinical aspects’, published in the July 2011 issue of Expert Opinion on Drug Metabolism & Toxicology (Expert Opin Drug Metab Toxicol 2011;7(7):891-910), an error has been identified by the author since publication.

In Section 3.3 (Reaction of a protein sulfenic acid with GSH), there was an error in the sentence, ‘In some cases the protein sulfenic acid is protected against further oxidation by formation of a sulfenyl amide [PSNHC(O)P'] with the carboxamide of a nearby glutamine/asparagine residue.’ The correct sentence should be, ‘In some cases the protein sulfenic acid is protected against further oxidation by formation of a cyclic sulfenyl amide [PSNRC(O)P'] with the peptide bond of a nearby residue.’

Informa Healthcare and the authors of this article would like to apologise for this error and for any confusion caused.
