DE RecName: Full=Peroxiredoxin-2; DE EC=1.11.1.15; GN Name=PRDX2; OS Cricetulus griseus (Chinese hamster).

OX NCBI_TaxID=10029; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [MRNA]. RA Keightley J.A., Shang L., Kinter M.; RT "2D Gel analysis of the proteomic adaptation of a mammalian cell line RT to oxidative stress reveals changes in the expression of metabolically RT relevant enzymes."; RL Submitted (JUL-2002) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases. CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in redox regulation of the cell. Reduces CC peroxides with reducing equivalents provided through the CC thioredoxin system. It is not able to receive electrons from CC glutaredoxin. May play an important role in eliminating peroxides CC generated during metabolism. Might participate in the signaling CC cascades of growth factors and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by CC regulating the intracellular concentrations of H(2)O(2) (By CC similarity). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: 2 R'-SH + ROOH = R'-S-S-R' + H(2)O + ROH. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked, upon oxidation. Interacts CC with TIPIN (By similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The active site is the redox-active Cys-51 oxidized CC to Cys-SOH. Cys-SOH rapidly reacts with Cys-172-SH of the other CC subunit to form an intermolecular disulfide with a concomitant CC homodimer formation. The enzyme may be subsequently regenerated by CC reduction of the disulfide by thioredoxin (By similarity). CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Inactivated upon oxidative stress by overoxidation CC of Cys-51 to Cys-SO(2)H and Cys-SO(3)H. Cys-SO(2)H is retroreduced CC to Cys-SOH after removal of H(2)O(2), while Cys-SO(3)H may be CC irreversibly oxidized (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ahpC/TSA family. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.
