생화학적/생리학적 작용

An FAD-containing enzyme involved in the transfer of hydrogen from E. coli thioredoxin to other proteins thus providing a powerful disulfide reductase system.

Thioredoxin reductase is a FAD containing enzyme, which transfers the reducing equivalent from NADPH to the disulphide bond of the enzyme by using FAD moiety within the Cys-Ala-Thr-Cys sequence. It can also reduce Trx-S2 to Trx-(SH)2 by using NADPH.

Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) is an NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase containing one FAD per subunit that reduces the active site disulfide in oxidised thioredoxin (Trx). The molecular weight of the isozymes from mammalian sources vary between 55-67 kDa as compared with 35 kDa in prokaryotes, plants or yeast. The substrate specificity of the mammalian enzyme is much broader than the prokaryotic enzyme reducing both mammalian and E. coli thioredoxins as well as well as non-disulfide substrates such selenite, lipoic acids, lipid hydroperoxides and hydrogen peroxide.
