Abstract
Singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) is a reactive oxygen species that, once present in cells, has the ability to oxidize biomolecules such as proteins, lipids and DNA. Previous results have shown that the reaction of 1O2 with thiols and disulfide bonds generates oxidation products in peptides and proteins. In light of this, the following research project seeks to study the mechanisms of oxidat…

Abstract
Damage to biomolecules (eg proteins) can be generated by extremely reactive oxidants, such as the hydroxyl radical (* OH), or by less reactive, and therefore more selective oxidants such as peroxyl, hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and oxygen radicals singlet (O2(1g)). HOCl, for example, plays an important role in defense against pathogens. However, this same molecule is strongly related to the …
