Analysis of free radicals, radical modifications and redox signalling
A Biochemical Society Focused Meeting
Meeting background:
Redox signalling via reversible modifications of protein thiols and bioactivity of oxidized lipids are topical fields that underpin understanding of physiological and disease processes. This meeting will focus on state-of-the-art methodology for measuring cellular levels of free radicals and analysing biomolecule oxidation, including discussion of the applications and limitations.
Topics
- Free radicals
- Reactive nitrogen species
- Oxidative post-translational modifications
- Redox signalling
- Lipid oxidation products
- Imaging
- Mass spectrometry
- Magnetic resonance techniques
