Fig 2: Model: CDO1 antagonizes the growth and survival of KEAP1MUT cells by producing toxic products and depleting NADPH.(Left) Elevated intracellular cysteine (CYS) stabilizes CDO1, leading to the production of CSA and SO32-. In turn, SO32- depletes cystine via sulfitolysis to produce CYS-SO3-, further limiting cysteine availability and utilization. SO2 (sulfur dioxide) exists in equilibrium with SO32- and is a gas that may diffuse in and out of cells. The continual reduction of (CYS)2 to CYS depletes cellular NADPH, limiting its availability for cellular processes. (Right) CDO1 silencing promotes the accumulation of intracellular CYS and NADPH, and prevents wasting of CYS as CSA and toxic SO32-. GSR, glutathione reductase. TXNRD1, thioredoxin reductase 1.
