PRDX2 Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [JJ090-3]

Function :
The peroxiredoxin (PRX) family comprises six antioxidant proteins, PRX I, II, III, IV, V and VI, which protect cells from reactive oxygen species (ROS) by preventing the metal-catalyzed oxidation of enzymes. The PRX proteins primarily utilize thioredoxin as the electron donor for antioxidation, although they are fairly promiscuous with regard to the hydroperoxide substrate.Formula of N-Fmoc-N’-methyl-L-asparagine In addition to protection from ROS, peroxiredoxins are also involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and gene expression.6-Bromo-3-methoxy-1H-indazole Formula PRX I, II, IV and VI show diffuse cytoplasmic localization, while PRX III and V exhibit distinct mitochondrial localization. PRX II is expressed in testis, while PRX III shows expression in lung. PRX I, II and III are overexpressed in breast cancer and may be involved in its development or progression. Upregulated protein levels of PRX I and II in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Down syndrome (DS) indicate the involvement of PRX I and II in their pathogenesis.
