Thioredoxin

TXNL4B is a member of the DIM1 family which has a vital role in pro-mRNA splicing. TXNL4B is required in cell cycle progression for S/G2 transition and interacts with PRPF6 subunit of the spliceosome.

TXNL4A is a member of the Dim protein family and has a vital part in pre-mRNA splicing. As a result of a failure to express early zygotic transcripts, deletion of the gene encoding TXNL4A in Schizosaccharomyces pombe results in embryonal lethality during gastrulation. Restricted to the nucleus, TXNL4A cooperates with hnRNP F, hnRNP H2, Cas-L and PQBP-1 to influence gene expression.

TXNL1 is a cytoplasmic protein which takes part in endocytotic signaling pathways and acts as a redox sensor. TXNL1 is universally expressed in the body and its goal is to couple oxidative stress to endocytosis, thereby regulating the GDI. Moreover, overexpression of TXNL1 inhibits cell proliferation by predisposing the cell to G0/G1 arrest, signifying that TXNL1 also functions as a transcriptional repressor.

TXNDC17 is a disulfide reductase that takes part in several redox reactions using the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide and catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions. TXNDC17 has peroxidase activity and assists to eliminate cellular hydrogen peroxide.

TXNDC12 is a member of the thioredoxin super family. This Family members have a thioredoxin fold with a consensus active-site sequence (CxxC) and take part in redox regulation, protection against oxidative stress, refolding of disulfide-containing proteins, and regulation of transcription factors.

Thioredoxins are small disulphide-containing redox proteins (within the conserved Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys active site) that have been found in all the kingdoms of living organisms. Thioredoxin contains a single disulfide active site and serves as a general protein disulphide oxidoreductase. Thioredoxins are involved in the first unique step in DNA synthesis. It interacts with a broad range of proteins by a redox mechanism based on reversible oxidation of two cysteine thiol groups to a disulphide, accompanied by the transfer of two electrons and two protons. The net result is the covalent interconversion of a disulphide and a dithiol. It has been suggested that thioredoxin may catalyze the formation of correct disulfides during protein folding because of its ability to act as an efficient oxidoreductant. Trx also provides control over a number of transcription factors affecting cell proliferation and death through a mechanism referred to as redox regulation.

Thioredoxin-2 is a low molecular weight redox protein. TRX2 contains a redox active disulfide/dithiol group within the conserved Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys active site. The TXN2 is involved in the regulation of the mitochondrial membrane potential and in protection against oxidant-induced apoptosis. Upon stimulation of Fas, TXN2 mediates denitrosylation of mitochondria-associated caspase-3, a process required for caspase-3 activation, and promoted apoptosis.
TRX2 is important at low oxidative stress conditions.
MTRX is involved in the regulation of the mitochondrial membrane potential and cell death. Mitochondrial thioredoxin plays an important roles in protection against oxidant-induced apoptosis. Thioredoxin1 and thioredoxin2 have opposed regulatory functions on hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha.
