Abstract
(Per)thionitrite (SNO- /SSNO- ) intermediates play vital roles in modulating nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) dependent bio-signalling processes. Whilst the previous preparations of such intermediates involved reactive H2 S/HS- or sulfane sulfur (S0 ) species, the present report reveals that relatively stable thiocarbonyl compounds (such as carbon disulfide (CS2 ), thiocarbamate, thioacetic acid, and thioacetate) react with nitrite anion to yield SNO- /SSNO- . For instance, the reaction of CS2 and nitrite anion (NO2 - ) under ambient condition affords CO2 and SNO- /SSNO- . A detailed investigation involving UV/Vis, FTIR, HRMS, and multinuclear NMR studies confirm the formation of SNO- /SSNO- , which are proposed to form through an initial nucleophilic attack by nitrite anion followed by a transnitrosation step. Notably, reactions of CS2 and nitrite in the presence of thiol RSH show the formation of organic polysulfides R-Sn -R, thereby illustrating that the thiocarbonyls are capable of influencing the pool of bioavailable sulfane sulfurs. Furthermore, the availability of both NO2 - and thiocarbonyl motifs in the biological context hints at their synergistic metal-free activations leading to the generation of NO gas and various reactive sulfur species via SNO- /SSNO- .

Abstract
The interactions of the heme iron of hemeproteins with sulfide and disulfide compounds are of potential interest as physiological signaling processes. While the interaction with hydrogen sulfide has been described computationally and experimentally, the reaction with disulfide, and specifically the molecular mechanism for ligand binding has not been studied in detail. In this work, we study the association process for disulfane and its conjugate base disulfanide at different pH conditions. Additionally, by means of advanced sampling techniques based on multiple steered molecular dynamics, we provide free energy profiles for ligand migration for both acid/base species, showing a similar behavior to the previously reported for the related H2S/HS¯ pair. Finally, we studied the ligand interchange reaction (H2O/H2S, HS¯ and H2O/HSSH, HSS¯) by means of hybrid quantum mechanics-molecular mechanics calculations. We show that the anionic species are able to displace more efficiently the H2O bound to the iron, and that the H-bond network in the distal cavity can help the neutral species to perform the reaction. Altogether, we provide a molecular explanation for the experimental information and show that the global association process depends on a fine balance between the migration towards the active site and the ligand interchange reaction.

Abstract
The mechanism of the metal centered reduction of metmyoglobin (MbFeIII) by inorganic disulfide species has been studied by combined spectroscopic and kinetic analyses, under argon atmosphere. The process is kinetically characterized by biexponential time traces, for variable ratios of excess disulfide to protein, in the pH interval 6.6-8.0. Using UV-vis and resonance Raman spectroscopies, we observed that MbFeIII is converted into a low spin hexacoordinated ferric complex, tentatively assigned as MbFeIII(HSS-)/MbFeIII(SS2-), in an initial fast step. The complex is slowly converted into a pentacoordinated ferrous form, assigned as MbFeII according to the resonance Raman records. The reduction is a pH-dependent process, but independent of the initial disulfide concentration, suggesting the unimolecular decomposition of the intermediate complex following a reductive homolysis. We estimated the rate of the fast formation of the complex at pH 7.4 (kon = 3.7 × 103 M-1 s-1), and a pKa2 = 7.5 for the equilibrium MbFeIII(HSS-)/MbFeIII(SS2-). Also, we estimated the rate for the slow reduction at the same pH (kred = 10-2 s-1). A reaction mechanism compliant with the experimental results is proposed. This mechanistic study provides a differential kinetic signature for the reactions of disulfide compared to sulfide species on metmyoglobin, which may be considered in other hemeprotein systems.

Abstract
The mechanism of the metal centered reduction of metmyoglobin (MbFeIII) by sulfide species (H2S/HS-) under an argon atmosphere has been studied by a combination of spectroscopic, kinetic, and computational methods. Asymmetric S-shaped time-traces for the formation of MbFeII at varying ratios of excess sulfide were observed at pH 5.3 < pH < 8.0 and 25 °C, suggesting an autocatalytic reaction mechanism. An increased rate at more alkaline pHs points to HS- as relevant reactive species for the reduction. The formation of the sulfanyl radical (HS•) in the slow initial phase was assessed using the spin-trap phenyl N-tert-butyl nitrone. This radical initiates the formation of S-S reactive species as disulfanuidyl/ disulfanudi-idyl radical anions and disulfide (HSSH•-/HSS•2- and HSS-, respectively). The autocatalysis has been ascribed to HSS-, formed after HSSH•-/HSS•2- disproportionation, which behaves as a fast reductant toward the intermediate complex MbFeIII(HS-). We propose a reaction mechanism for the sulfide-mediated reduction of metmyoglobin where only ferric heme iron initiates the oxidation of sulfide species. Beside the chemical interest, this insight into the MbFeIII/sulfide reaction under an argon atmosphere is relevant for the interpretation of biochemical aspects of ectopic myoglobins found on hypoxic tissues toward reactive sulfur species.

Abstract
S/N crosstalk species derived from the interconnected reactivity of H2 S and NO facilitate the transport of reactive sulfur and nitrogen species in signaling, transport, and regulatory processes. We report here that simple Fe2+ ions, such as those that are bioavailable in the labile iron pool (LIP), react with thionitrite (SNO- ) and perthionitrite (SSNO- ) to yield the dinitrosyl iron complex [Fe(NO)2 (S5 )]- . In the reaction of FeCl2 with SNO- we were able to isolate the unstable intermediate hydrosulfido mononitrosyl iron complex [FeCl2 (NO)(SH)]- , which was characterized by X-ray crystallography. We also show that [Fe(NO)2 (S5 )]- is a simple synthon for nitrosylated Fe-S clusters via its reduction with PPh3 to yield Roussin's Red Salt ([Fe2 S2 (NO)4 ]2- ), which highlights the role of S/N crosstalk species in the assembly of fundamental Fe-S motifs.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule that is involved in a wide range of physiological and pathological events in biology. Metal coordination chemistry, especially with iron, is at the heart of many biological transformations involving NO. A series of heme proteins, nitric oxide synthases (NOS), soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), and nitrophorins, are responsible for the biosynthesis, sensing, and transport of NO. Alternatively, NO can be generated from nitrite by heme- and copper-containing nitrite reductases (NIRs). The NO-bearing small molecules such as nitrosothiols and dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) can serve as an alternative vehicle for NO storage and transport. Once NO is formed, the rich reaction chemistry of NO leads to a wide variety of biological activities including reduction of NO by heme or non-heme iron-containing NO reductases and protein post-translational modifications by DNICs. Much of our understanding of the reactivity of metal sites in biology with NO and the mechanisms of these transformations has come from the elucidation of the geometric and electronic structures and chemical reactivity of synthetic model systems, in synergy with biochemical and biophysical studies on the relevant proteins themselves. This review focuses on recent advancements from studies on proteins and model complexes that not only have improved our understanding of the biological roles of NO but also have provided foundations for biomedical research and for bio-inspired catalyst design in energy science.

Abstract
NO and H2 S serve as signaling molecules in biology with intertwined reactivity. HSNO and HSSNO with their conjugate bases - SNO and - SSNO form in the reaction of H2 S with NO as well as S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) and nitrite (NO2- ) that serve as NO reservoirs. While HSNO and HSSNO are elusive, their conjugate bases form isolable zinc complexes Ph,Me TpZn(SNO) and Ph,Me TpZn(SSNO) supported by tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands. Reaction of Na(15-C-5)SSNO with Ph,Me TpZn(ClO4 ) provides Ph,Me TpZn(SSNO) that undergoes S-atom removal by PEt3 to give Ph,Me TpZn(SNO) and S=PEt3 . Unexpectedly stable at room temperature, these Zn-SNO and Zn-SSNO complexes release NO upon heating. Ph,Me TpZn(SNO) and Ph,Me TpZn(SSNO) quickly react with acidic thiols such as C6 F5 SH to form N2 O and NO, respectively. Increasing the thiol basicity in p-substituted aromatic thiols 4-X ArSH in the reaction with Ph,Me TpZn(SNO) turns on competing S-nitrosation to form Ph,Me TpZn-SH and RSNO, the latter a known precursor for NO.

Abstract
The cross-linking reaction between sulfide and S-nitrosothiol moieties has been intensively investigated and thionitrite/thionitrous acid (SNO−/HSNO) as well as nitrosopersulfide (SSNO−) were reported to be the intermediates that could serve as reservoirs for nitric oxide (NO). However, debate still exists regarding the stability and biological activity of SNO−/HSNO and SSNO−. In order to investigate the chemical properties and biological activity of SNO− and SSNO−, we set out to re-characterize the reaction intermediates using UV-Vis and 15N NMR spectroscopy techniques, as well as a new 17O NMR approach. The effects of SNO− and SSNO− on cellular NO and cGMP levels were assessed via cell culture experiments, and also the effects of SNO− and SSNO− on cell proliferation, migration, and capillary-like structure formation were evaluated with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Through this work, the characteristic peaks and half-lives of SNO− and SSNO− were elucidated under various preparation conditions. The biological assays demonstrated that SSNO− increased the cellular NO and cGMP levels and also facilitated cell proliferation, migration and stimulated angiogenesis, while in contrast SNO− did not exhibit these effects. By using UV-Vis, 15N NMR and 17O NMR spectroscopy techniques, we characterized the intermediates (SSNO− and SNO−) obtained from RSNO and Na2S cross-linking reaction. We found that SSNO− could serve as NO reservoir in cell culture experiments.![]()

Abstract
This review describes the latest developments in the field of 17O NMR spectroscopy of organic and biological molecules both in aqueous solution and in the solid state. In the first part of the review, a general theoretical description of the nuclear quadrupole relaxation process in isotropic liquids is presented at a mathematical level suitable for non-specialists. In addition to the first-order quadrupole interaction, the theory also includes additional relaxation mechanisms such as the second-order quadrupole interaction and its cross correlation with shielding anisotropy. This complete theoretical treatment allows one to assess the transverse relaxation rate (thus the line width) of NMR signals from half-integer quadrupolar nuclei in solution over the entire range of motion. On the basis of this theoretical framework, we discuss general features of quadrupole-central-transition (QCT) NMR, which is a particularly powerful method of studying biomolecules in the slow motion regime. Then we review recent advances in 17O QCT NMR studies of biological macromolecules in aqueous solution. The second part of the review is concerned with solid-state 17O NMR studies of organic and biological molecules. As a sequel to the previous review on the same subject [G. Wu, Prog. Nucl. Magn. Reson. Spectrosc. 52 (2008) 118-169], the current review provides a complete coverage of the literature published since 2008 in this area.

Abstract
Interactions between small inorganic molecules are fundamental to the understanding of basic reaction mechanisms and some of the initial processes of chemical evolution that preceded organic molecules and led to the origin of life. The kinetics of these processes are suitable for the fast generation of a variety of new chemical entities and the propagation of a cascade of chemical reactions, a property that is ideal for signaling purposes even in biological systems. NO and H2S are such molecules that are nowadays recognized as biological gasotransmitters involved in the regulation of physiological functions through protein modifications such as S-nitrosothiol, disulfide, and persulfide formations. In this Viewpoint, we review the current understanding of interactions of NO (and organic and metal nitrosyl species) with H2S, in both chemical and biochemical contexts. Through the formation of HNO, (H)SNO (and its isomers), (H)SSNO, and polysulfides, these two gasotransmitters initiate reaction networks with significant roles in cell signaling. The chemical reactivities and biological effects of these nitrogen and sulfur species are still unresolved, and, thus, a cross-talk between all of them represents a challenging interdisciplinary field that awaits exciting new findings. We tackle some of the intriguing and open questions and provide perspectives for future research directions.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has emerged as a relevant signaling molecule in physiology, taking its seat as a bona fide gasotransmitter akin to nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO). After being merely regarded as a toxic poisonous molecule, it is now recognized that mammalian cells are equipped with sophisticated enzymatic systems for H2S production and breakdown. The signaling role of H2S is mainly related to its ability to modify different protein targets, particularly by promoting persulfidation of protein cysteine residues and by interacting with metal centers, mostly hemes. H2S has been shown to regulate a myriad of cellular processes with multiple physiological consequences. As such, dysfunctional H2S metabolism is increasingly implicated in different pathologies, from cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases to cancer. As a highly diffusible reactive species, the intra- and extracellular levels of H2S have to be kept under tight control and, accordingly, regulation of H2S metabolism occurs at different levels. Interestingly, even though H2S, NO, and CO have similar modes of action and parallel regulatory targets or precisely because of that, there is increasing evidence of a crosstalk between the three gasotransmitters. Herein are reviewed the biochemistry, metabolism, and signaling function of hydrogen sulfide, as well as its interplay with the other gasotransmitters, NO and CO.

Abstract
The biological mechanisms of de novo formation of cellular nitrosothiols (as opposed to transnitrosation) are reviewed. The approach is to introduce chemical foundations for each mechanism, followed by evidence in biological systems. The general categories include mechanisms involving nitrous acid, NO autoxidation and oxidant stress, redox active and inactive metal ions, and sulfide/persulfide. Important conclusions/speculations are that de novo cellular thiol nitrosation (1) is an oxidative process, and so should be considered within the family of other thiol oxidative modifications, (2) may not involve a single dominant process but depends on the specific conditions, (3) does not involve O2 under at least some conditions, and (4) may serve to provide a "substrate pool" of protein cysteine nitrosothiol which could, through subsequent enzymatic transnitrosation/denitrosation, be "rearranged" to accomplish the specificity and regulatory control required for effective post-translational signaling.

Abstract
The reactions between inorganic sulfur and nitrogen-bearing compounds to form S-N containing species have a long history and, besides assuming importance in industrial synthetic processes, are of relevance to microbial metabolism; waste water treatment; aquatic, soil and atmospheric chemistry; and combustion processes. The recent discovery that hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide exert often similar, sometimes mutually dependent effects in a variety of biological systems, and that the chemical interaction of these two species leads to formation of S-N compounds brought this chemistry to the attention of physiologists, biochemists and physicians. We here provide a perspective about the potential role of S-N compounds in biological signaling and briefly review their chemical properties and bioactivities in the context of the chronology of their discovery. Studies of the biological role of NO revealed why its chemistry is ideally suited for the tasks Nature has chosen for it; realising how the distinctive properties of sulfur can enrich this bioactivity does much to revive 'die Freude am experimentellen Spiel' of the pioneers in this field.
