Thiol–disulfide exchange is a reversible reaction central to protein folding, disulfide bond rearrangement, redox regulation, and protein quality control. Learn its mechanism and biological applications.

The oxidative stress response is a cellular defence system that neutralises reactive oxygen species (ROS) and restores redox balance. Through antioxidant enzymes, Nrf2‑mediated transcription, mitochondrial regulation and damage‑repair pathways, cells protect themselves from oxidative injury and maintain homeostasis.
