Quinone- and nitroreductase reactions of Thermotoga maritima thioredoxin reductase.
The Thermotoga maritima NADH:thioredoxin reductase (TmTR) contains FAD and a catalytic disulfide in the active center, and uses a relatively poorly studied physiological oxidant Grx-1-type glutaredoxin. In order to further assess the redox properties of TmTR, we used series of quinoidal and nitroaromatic oxidants with a wide range of single-electron reduction potentials (E(1)7, -0.49-0.09 V). W...
متن کاملConformational change of Arabidopsis thaliana thioredoxin reductase after binding of pyridine nucleotide and thioredoxin.
We have found that the binding of NADP+ (Kd = 0.86+/-0.11 microM) enhanced the FAD fluorescence of Arabidopsis thaliana NADPH:thioredoxin reductase (TR, EC 1.6.4.5) by 2 times, whereas the binding of 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide phosphate (AADP+) (Kd < 0.1 microM) quenched the fluorescence by 20%. Thioredoxin (TRX) also enhanced the FAD fluorescence by 35%. The Kd of TR-NADP+ and TR-AAD...
متن کاملThe contribution of NADPH thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) and sulfiredoxin to 2-Cys peroxiredoxin overoxidation in Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplasts
Hydrogen peroxide is a harmful by-product of photosynthesis, which also has important signalling activity. Therefore, the level of hydrogen peroxide needs to be tightly controlled. Chloroplasts harbour different antioxidant systems including enzymes such as the 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (2-Cys Prxs). Under oxidizing conditions, 2-Cys Prxs are susceptible to inactivation by overoxidation of their per...
متن کاملHomology modeling of Ferredoxin-nitrite reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana
UNLABELLED Nitrogen is one of the major growth-limiting nutrients for plants: The main source of nitrogen in most of the higher plants is nitrate taken up through roots. Nitrate can be reduced both in the chloroplasts (photosynthetic tissues) and in proplastes (nonphotosynthetic tissues) such as roots. Ferredoxin-nitrite reductase (NiR) catalyses the reduction of nitrite to ammonium in the seco...
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...
