The thioredoxin h system: potential applications
The thioredoxin h system has the specific capability to reduce intramolecular disulfide bonds of proteins, thereby modifying their tertiary structure. It is involved in many processes: in the activation or deactivation of enzymes and enzyme inhibitors and in the germination process. This system can be used to improve the breadmaking quality of wheat by

The Mitochondrial Thioredoxin System
Eukaryotic organisms from yeast to human possess a mitochondrial thioredoxin system composed of thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase, similar to the cytosolic thioredoxin system that exists in the same cells. Yeast and mammalian mitochondrial thioredoxins are monomers of approximately 12 kDa and contain the typical conserved active site WCGPC. However,

The logic of kinetic regulation in the thioredoxin system [PDF]
The thioredoxin system consisting of NADP(H), thioredoxin reductase and thioredoxin provides reducing equivalents to a large and diverse array of cellular processes. Despite a great deal of information on the kinetics of individual thioredoxin-dependent reactions, the kinetic regulation of this system as an integrated whole is not known.

The thioredoxin system in retroviral infection and apoptosis [PDF]
Human thioredoxin (TRX) was first identified in human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I)-positive T-cell lines and is associated with the pathophysiology of retroviral infections. TRX is a vital component of the thiol-reducing system and regulates various cellular function (redox regulation).
