Peroxiredoxin-5 Active Protein | PRDX5 active protein
Recombinant Human Peroxiredoxin-5
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Introduction: PRDX5 belongs to the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides with reducing equivalents supplied through the thioredoxin system. PRDX5 has an antioxidant protective function in different tissues under normal conditions and during inflammatory processes. Peroxiredoxin-5 interacts with peroxisome receptor 1 and is involved in intracellular redox signaling. PRDX5 is involved in intracellular redox signaling. Peroxiredoxin-5 is a significant antioxidant protein of lung epithelial cells for its expression in the human lung increases during inflammation. PRDX5 expression is upregulated in osteoarthritis. PRDX5 may be significant in mitochondrial genome stability. Peroxiredoxin-5 has a protective role in human tendon cells against oxidative stress by reducing apoptosis and upholding collagen synthesis.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides. The encoded protein may play an antioxidant protective role in different tissues under normal conditions and during inflammatory processes. This protein interacts with peroxisome receptor 1. The crystal structure of this protein in its reduced form has been resolved to 1.5 angstrom resolution. This gene uses alternate in-frame translation initiation sites to generate mitochondrial or peroxisomal/cytoplasmic forms. Three transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
