NADPH-Dependent Thioredoxin Reductase and a New Thioredoxin from Wheat
An albumin fraction extracted from wheat flour contains thioredoxin reductase (Mr = 65,000) and a heat-stable thioredoxin (Mr = 15,000) which are separated on DEAE cellulose and further purified by gel filtration. W heat thioredoxin stimulates E. coli ribonucleotide reductase but not chloroplast fructose-bis-phosphatase. The enzyme is NADPH-dependent (Km = 3.2 X 10 -6 m) . In presence of the th...
متن کاملHigh-throughput screening against thioredoxin glutathione reductase identifies novel inhibitors with potential therapeutic value for schistosomiasis
BACKGROUND Schistosomiasis, a parasitic disease also known as bilharzia and snail fever, is caused by different species of flatworms, such as Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni). Thioredoxin glutathione reductase (TGR) from S. mansoni (SmTGR) is a well-characterized drug target for schistosomiasis, yet no anti-SmTGR compounds have reached clinical trials, suggesting that therapeutic development ag...
متن کاملPurification of thioredoxin, thioredoxin reductase, and glutathione reductase by affinity chromatography.
A scheme is described for the large scale purification of thioredoxin, thioredoxin reductase, and glutathione reductase. The scheme is based on an initial separation of thioredoxin from the two reductases by affinity chromatography on agarose-bound N6-(6-aminohexyl)-adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate (agarose-2',5'-ADP). The two reductases were then separated by hydrophobic chromatography and purifie...
متن کاملCoenzyme F420-dependent sulfite reductase-enabled sulfite detoxification and use of sulfite as a sole sulfur source by Methanococcus maripaludis.
Coenzyme F(420)-dependent sulfite reductase (Fsr) of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, a sulfite-tolerant methanogen, was expressed with activity in Methanococcus maripaludis, a sulfite-sensitive methanogen. The recombinant organism reduced sulfite to sulfide and grew with sulfite as the sole sulfur source, indicating that Fsr is a sulfite detoxification and assimilation enzyme for methanogens and...
متن کاملCloning of thioredoxin h reductase and characterization of the thioredoxin reductase-thioredoxin h system from wheat.
Thioredoxins h are ubiquitous proteins reduced by NADPH- thioredoxin reductase (NTR). They are able to reduce disulphides in target proteins. In monocots, thioredoxins h accumulate at high level in seeds and show a predominant localization in the nucleus of seed cells. These results suggest that the NTR-thioredoxin h system probably plays an important role in seed physiology. To date, the study...
