Abstract
⺠Zinc is part of the antioxidant network protecting biological systems from oxidative stress. ⺠Protein thiol-bound zinc participates in redox sensing. ⺠Zinc regulates proteins directly or indirectly involved in redox homeostasis. ⺠Zinc can modulate redox signaling through multiple mechanisms. ⺠NO and oxidants release zinc bound to sulfur clusters.
