General annotation (Comments)

Function

Trypanothione is the parasite analog of glutathione; this enzyme is the equivalent of glutathione reductase.

Catalytic activity

Trypanothione + NADP(+) = trypanothione disulfide + NADPH.

Cofactor

Binds 1 FAD per subunit.

Subunit structure

Homodimer.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm.

Post-translational modification

The N-terminus is blocked.

Miscellaneous

The active site is a redox-active disulfide bond.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

pH dependence:

Optimum pH is 7.5-8.0.
