Anti-TXNRD2

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Thioredoxin reductase 2 is also known as TRXR2, TR3, SELZ, or TR-BETA. Thioredoxin reductases, are selenocysteine (sec)-containing flavoenzymes that maintain thioredoxins, small proteins that catalyze redox reactions, in the reduced state using the reducing power of NADPH. By STS analysis and genomic sequence analysis, respectively, Miranda-Vizuete et al.(1999) and Sun et al.(1999) mapped the TXNRD2 gene to chromosome 22q11.2. Miranda-Vizuete et al.(1999) mapped the mouse gene to chromosome 16. Gasdaska et al.(1999) showed that TXNRD2 was a thioredoxin reductase that could directly reduce proteins such as insulin. Protein function: Involved in the control of reactive oxygen species levels and the regulation of mitochondrial redox homeostasis (PubMed:24601690). Maintains thioredoxin in a reduced state. May play a role in redox- regulated cell signaling. [The UniProt Consortium]
