Product Background
Antigen Description
Peroxiredoxin (Prx) is a growing peroxidase family whose mammalian members are involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. There are many isoforms(about 50 proteins), known on the basis of amino acid sequence homology, particularly the amino-terminal region containing an active site cysteine residue. The thiol-specific antioxidant activity is distributed throughout all the kingdoms. Among them, mammalian Prx consists of 6 different members grouped into typical 2 Cys, atypical 2 Cys Prx, and 1 Cys Prx. Except PrxVI belonging to the 1 Cys Prx subgroup, the other five 2 Cys Prx isotypes share the thioredoxin dependent peroxidase(TPx) activity utilizing thioredoxin, thioredoxin reductase, and NADPH as a reducing system. Mammalian Prxs are 20–30 kilodaltons in molecular size and vary in subcellular localization:PrxI, II and VI in cytosol, PrxIII in mitochondria, PrxIV in ER and secretion, PrxV showing complicated distribution including peroxisome, mitochondria and cytosol.
