The Barley Grain Thioredoxin System – an Update [PDF]
Thioredoxin reduces disulfide bonds and play numerous important functions in plants. In cereal seeds, cytosolic h-type thioredoxin facilitates the release of energy reserves during the germination process and is recycled by NADPH-dependent thioredoxin ...

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 Mammalian Testis-Specific Thioredoxin System
Redox control of cell physiology is one of the most important regulatory mechanisms in all living organisms. The thioredoxin system, composed of thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase, has emerged as a key player in cellular redox-mediated reactions.

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.

Molecular and Cellular Responses of DNA Methylation and Thioredoxin System to Heat Stress in Meat-Type Chickens [PDF]
Heat stress (HS) causes molecular dysfunction that adversely affects chicken performance and increases mortality. The responses of chickens to HS are extremely complex.

Thioredoxin and Glutathione Systems
Most cancer cells contain high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which result in higher expression levels of the glutathione and thioredoxin reductase systems. These antioxidant systems convert ROS to nonharmful compounds and they also reduce disulfide bonds in oxidized proteins.

The enzymatic activity of thioredoxin reductase enzymes is endowed by at least two redox centers: a flavin and a dithiol/disulfide CXXC motif. The interaction between thioredoxin reductase and thioredoxin is generally species-specific, but the molecular aspects related to this phenomenon remain elusive.

Selenoproteins and the Thioredoxin System
The thioredoxin system, comprising NADPH, flavoprotein thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), and 12 kDa thioredoxin (Trx) with a catalytic dithiol/disulfide, is the ubiquitous biological cellular disulfide reduction system with major functions in DNA synthesis, defense against oxidative stress, and thiol redox control. In mammalian cells Trx system activity is

Antioxidant activity of the thioredoxin system. [PDF]
The thioredoxin system is composed of thioredoxin (Trx), thioredoxin reductase (TR) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. Trx is an important antioxidant molecule that can resist cell death caused by various stresses and plays a prominent role in redox reactions.
