OX NCBI_TaxID=9823; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [LARGE SCALE MRNA]. RC TISSUE=Small intestine; RX MEDLINE=96327607; PubMed=8672129; DOI=10.1007/s003359900153; RA Winteroe A.K., Fredholm M., Davies W.; RT "Evaluation and characterization of a porcine small intestine cDNA RT library: analysis of 839 clones."; RL Mamm. Genome 7:509-517(1996). CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in redox regulation of the cell. Reduces CC peroxides with reducing equivalents provided through the CC thioredoxin system. It is not able to receive electrons from CC glutaredoxin. May play an important role in eliminating peroxides CC generated during metabolism. Might participate in the signaling CC cascades of growth factors and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by CC regulating the intracellular concentrations of H(2)O(2). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: 2 R'-SH + ROOH = R'-S-S-R' + H(2)O + ROH. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked, upon oxidation. Interacts CC with TIPIN (By similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The active site is the redox-active Cys-12 oxidized CC to Cys-SOH. Cys-SOH rapidly reacts with Cys-?-SH of the other CC subunit to form an intermolecular disulfide with a concomitant CC homodimer formation. The enzyme may be subsequently regenerated by CC reduction of the disulfide by thioredoxin (By similarity). CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Inactivated upon oxidative stress by overoxidation CC of Cys-12 to Cys-SO(2)H and Cys-SO(3)H. Cys-SO(2)H is retroreduced CC to Cys-SOH after removal of H(2)O(2), while Cys-SO(3)H may be CC irreversibly oxidized (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ahpC/TSA family. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.
