  Yeast

• Source:

  Escherichia coli

• Purification:

  Purity of GRX2 is greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Form:

  Sterile Filtered clear colorless solution.

• Function:

  Component of the glutathione system which performs several activities such as glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity. The disulfide bond functions as an electron carrier in the glutathione-dependent synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides by the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase. In addition, it is also involved in reducing cytosolic protein- and non-protein-disulfides in a coupled system with glutathione reductase. Required for resistance to reactive oxygen species (ROS) by directly reducing hydroperoxides and for the detoxification of ROS-mediated damage. GRX2 is more active as an oxidoreductase than GRX1.
