Free radical theory, a classical theory of aging, proposes that oxidative stress caused by elevated intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the most significant contributor to cellular senescence and aging in mammals (Liochev, 2013
An alternative interpretation for the first phase could be a rapid noncovalent interaction between PfGrx and GSSG in the vicinity of roGFP2, however, this seems less likely considering the smaller values for the structurally similar PfGrx mutants or, in particular, the rxYFP fusion constructs with ScGrx1 (Table 1)
