General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in redox regulation of the cell. Can reduce H2O2 and short chain organic, fatty acid, and phospholipid hydroperoxides. May play a role in the regulation of phospholipid turnover as well as in protection against oxidative injury By similarity.

Catalytic activity

2 R'-SH + ROOH = R'-S-S-R' + H2O + ROH.

2 glutathione + H2O2 = glutathione disulfide + 2 H2O.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer. Interacts with GSTP1; mediates PRDX6 glutathionylation and regeneration. May interact with HTR2A. Interacts with APEX1 and STH By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Lysosome By similarity. Cytoplasmic vesicle By similarity. Note: Also found in lung secretory organelles By similarity.

Miscellaneous

The active site is the redox-active Cys-47 oxidized to Cys-SOH. Unlike 2-Cys peroxiredoxins, PRDX6 conserves only this peroxidatic cysteine. To regenerate and activate the enzyme, the oxidized form is directly reduced to cysteine by glutathione and not thioredoxin By similarity.

Irreversibly inactivated by overoxidation of Cys-47 (to Cys-SO3H) upon oxidative stress By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the AhpC/TSA family. Rehydrin subfamily.

Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.
