b In the case of proteins, the critical residue is shown in parentheses.
NR, not reported.
rate constants as a function of pH for thiols were a bell-shaped curve. This
indicates the protonated form of one species reacted with the anionic species
of the other. However, the rate constants for a number of thiols increased as
the p K a of the thiol compound decreased, suggesting ONOOH was the reac-
tive species with the anionic thiolate (RS ) [267].
The reactions of peroxynitrite with RS form corresponding disulfides and
nitrites (Table 5.7). disulfide is formed through an intermediate of sulfenic
acid, RSOH (Eq. 5.43), which reacts further with another molecule of thiol to
form the corresponding disulfide (Eq. 5.44) [270]:
