Oxidative cross-linking of calprotectin occurs in vivo, altering its structure and susceptibility to proteolysis

Calprotectin, the major neutrophil protein, is a critical alarmin that modulates inflammation and plays a role in host immunity by strongly binding trace metals essential for bacterial growth. It has two cysteine residues favourably positioned to act as a redox switch. Whether their oxidation occurs...
