peroxirredoxina
Scope note: Familia de peroxidasas expresadas de modo ubicuo que desempeñan un papel en la reducción de un amplio espectro de PERÓXIDOS como el PERÓXIDO DE HIDRÓGENO, PERÓXIDOS DE LÍPIDOS y peroxinitrito. Se encuentran en una amplia gama de organismos tales como BACTERIAS, PLANTAS y MAMÍFEROS. La enzima requiere la presencia de un intermedio tiólico, como la TIOREDOXINA como cofactor reductor.

Scope note: A family of ubiquitously-expressed peroxidases that play a role in the reduction of a broad spectrum of PEROXIDES like HYDROGEN PEROXIDE; LIPID PEROXIDES and peroxinitrite. They are found in a wide range of organisms, such as BACTERIA; PLANTS; and MAMMALS. The enzyme requires the presence of a thiol-containing intermediate such as THIOREDOXIN as a reducing cofactor.
