Saccharomyces cerevisiae Expresses Three Phospholipid Hydroperoxide Glutathione Peroxidases [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001 The GPX1, GPX2, and GPX3 genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been reported previously to encode glutathione peroxidases (GPxs). We re-examined the sequence alignments of these proteins with GPxs from higher eukaryotes. Sequence identities, particularly with phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidases (PHGPxs), were enhanced markedly by ...

Endoplasmic reticulum H₂O₂ : Ero1-driven generation and GPx-mediated detoxification [PDF]
, 2014 Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) oxidoreductin 1 alpha (Ero1alpha) is an ER-resident oxidase, which utilizes molecular oxygen (O2) as terminal electron acceptor to produce disulfide bonds and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

Antioxidants, 2023 Important antioxidant enzymes, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), are involved in maintaining redox balance. They can protect each other and result in more efficiently removing excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting

The Role of Phospholipid Hydroperoxide Glutathione Peroxidase Isoforms in Murine Embryogenesis [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006 Phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (GPx4) is a selenocysteine-containing enzyme, and three different isoforms (cytosolic, mitochondrial, and nuclear) originate from the GPx4 gene. Homozygous GPx4-deficient mice die in utero at midgestation, since they fail to initiate gastrulation and do not develop embryonic cavities. To investigate the

Proteomic analysis of tea plants (Camellia sinensis) with purple young shoots during leaf development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Tea products made from purple leaves are highly preferred by consumers due to the health benefits. This study developed a proteome reference map related to color changes during leaf growth in tea (Camellia sinensis) plant with purple young shoots using ...

A stress-associated citrus protein is a distinct plant phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase [PDF]
, 1995 A protein whose level is markedly increased upon exposure of cultured citrus cells and whole plants to NaCl, was shown to specifically catalyze the reduction of phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide in the presence of glutathione. This enzymatic activity was
