Function

[TRXR1_HUMAN] Isoform 1 may possess glutaredoxin activity as well as thioredoxin reductase activity and induces actin and tubulin polymerization, leading to formation of cell membrane protrusions. Isoform 4 enhances the transcriptional activity of estrogen receptors alpha and beta while isoform 5 enhances the transcriptional activity of the beta receptor only. Isoform 5 also mediates cell death induced by a combination of interferon-beta and retinoic acid.[1] [2] [3] [4] [THIO_HUMAN] Participates in various redox reactions through the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide and catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions. Plays a role in the reversible S-nitrosylation of cysteine residues in target proteins, and thereby contributes to the response to intracellular nitric oxide. Nitrosylates the active site Cys of CASP3 in response to nitric oxide (NO), and thereby inhibits caspase-3 activity. Induces the FOS/JUN AP-1 DNA-binding activity in ionizing radiation (IR) cells through its oxidation/reduction status and stimulates AP-1 transcriptional activity.[5] [6] [7] [8] [9] ADF augments the expression of the interleukin-2 receptor TAC (IL2R/P55).[10] [11] [12] [13] [14]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) is a homodimeric flavoprotein crucially involved in the regulation of cellular redox homeostasis, growth, and differentiation. Its importance in various diseases makes TrxR1 a highly interesting drug target. Here we present the first crystal structures of human TrxR1 in complex with its substrate thioredoxin (Trx). The carboxy-terminal redox centre is found about 20 A apart from the amino-terminal redox centre, with no major conformational changes in TrxR or Trx. Thus, our structure confirms that the enzyme uses a flexible C-terminal arm for electron transport to its substrates, which is stabilized by a guiding bar for controlled transfer. This notion is supported by mutational analyses. Furthermore, essential residues of the interface region were characterized both structurally and functionally. The structure provides templates for future drug design, and contributes to our understanding of redox regulatory processes in mammals.
