Primary structure of the nuclear forms of phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) in rat spermatozoa [PDF]
Phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase is a monomeric Se-peroxidase highly expressed in mammalian male germ cells. Its nuclear form, sperm nuclei glutathione peroxidase (snGPx), has been originally identified in maturating spermatozoa as a ...

Crystal and solution structural studies of mouse phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase 4. [PDF]
The mammalian glutathione peroxidase (GPx) family is a key component of the cellular antioxidative defence system. Within this family, GPx4 has unique features as it accepts a large class of hydroperoxy lipid substrates and has a plethora of biological ...

Tolerance to Stress Combination in Tomato Plants: New Insights in the Protective Role of Melatonin
Abiotic stresses such as drought, heat or salinity are major causes of yield loss worldwide. Recent studies have revealed that the acclimation of plants to a combination of different environmental stresses is unique and therefore cannot be directly ...

Structure and Functions of Phospholipid Hydroperoxide Glutathione Peroxidase
Phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase is the only known intracellular antioxidant enzyme directly capable of reduing peroxidized phospholipids and cholesterol in membranes. PHGPx is a member of the selenoprotein family that contain the unique amino acid, selenocysteine, the active site for peroxidase activity.

Native specific activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx-1), phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) and glutathione reductase (GR) does not differ between normo- and hypomotyle human sperm samples [PDF]
Glutathione-dependent selenoenzymes in human spermatozoa are responsible for a generalized protection against reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as some other metabolic and structural regulation during spermiogenesis and sperm cell maturation ...
