Abstract

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are increasingly recognized as second messengers in many cellular processes.
While high concentrations of oxidants damage proteins, lipids and DNA, ultimately resulting in
cell death, selective and reversible oxidation of key residues in proteins is a physiological mechanism
that can transiently alter their activity and function. Defects in ROS producing enzymes cause disturbed
immune response and disease.
Changes in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration are key triggers for diverse cellular functions. Ca2+
homeostasis thus needs to be precisely tuned by channels, pumps, transporters and cellular buffering
systems. Alterations of these key regulatory proteins by reversible or irreversible oxidation alter the
physiological outcome following cell stimulation. It is therefore necessary to understand which proteins
are regulated and if this regulation is relevant in a physiological- and/or pathophysiological context.
Because ROS are inherently difficult to identify and to measure, we first review basic oxygen redox
chemistry and methods of ROS detection with special emphasis on electron paramagnetic resonance
(EPR) spectroscopy. We then focus on the present knowledge of redox regulation of Ca2+ permeable ion
channels such as voltage-gated (CaV) Ca2+ channels, transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and Orai
channels.
