forms a toroid-shaped structure. The size and shapes of the top view are similar to those of the wild type. The octameric form of C207S/C213S mutant dissociates into monomer in the presence of 10 mM DTT. Peroxidase activity is similar to wilde type activity
autophosphorylation of C53S 2-Cys Prx does not require successive incubation with dithiothreitol and the hydroperoxide but is extremely sensitive to the addition of dithiothreitol
the mutant enzyme prevents the inactivation of glutamine synthetase and the DNA cleavage in the metal-catalyzed oxidation system. In the yeast thioredoxin system containing thioredoxin reductase, thioredoxin, and NADPH, the DELTAC2C-Prx exhibits peroxidase activity on H2O2
glutathionylation of isoform PrxI wild-type or its C52S/C173S double mutant shifts its oligomeric status from decamers to a population consisting mainly of dimers. Glutathionylation of both the wild-type and C52S/C173S mutant greatly reduces their molecular chaperone activity in protecting citrate synthase from thermally induced aggregation
the mutant is fully active as a thioredoxin-dependent peroxidase and remains active despite exposure to peroxynitrite, pronounced instability of the mutant enzyme under oxidizing conditions
kcat/Km of mutant enzyme is reduced for thioredoxin as a substrate approximately 50fold. In contrast to the wildtype enzyme, covalently linked dimers are not formed
although the PrxS C81S mutant protein can be overexpressed and purified under denaturing conditions, it is not possible to obtain any active C81S PrxS. the C81S mutant is prone to inclusion body formation
expression of PrxQ suppresses the hypersensitivity of an Escherichia coli bcp mutant to peroxides, indicating that it might exert an antioxidant activity in vivo. Escherichia coli bcp cells producing the mutant enzyme show the same sensitivities to the organic peroxides as those of the control bcp cells
expression of PrxQ suppresses the hypersensitivity of an Escherichia coli bcp mutant to peroxides, indicating that it might exert an antioxidant activity in vivo. Escherichia coli bcp cells producing the mutant enzyme show the same sensitivities to the organic peroxides as those of the control bcp cells. Except that the bcp cells producing C49S show partial resistance to tert-butyl hydroperoxide
site-directed mutagenesis, structure comparison to the wild-type enzyme, dimedone likely inactivated the XfPrxQ C83S protein because sulfenic acids persist long enough to react with dimedone only in the absence of Cys83
like the wild-type enzyme the mutant enzyme exists as a hexadecamer, DTT treatment has no effect on their quaternary structure. Peroxidase activity is less effective than the wild type activity

residue Cys83 is not essential for the formation of high molecular weight complexes, it affects the dimer/decamer equilibrium. Glutathionylation of the C83S mutant leads to accumulation of dimers and monomers
the C50S mutant enzyme retains almost all the activity of the wild-type enzyme (DTT-dependent peroxidase activity). Unlike the wild-type enzyme, the mutant enzyme is able to form in vitro a homodimer via an intermolecular disulfide bond
mutagenesis studies suggest that the sulfhydryl group of Cys50 is the site of oxidation by peroxide and that oxidized Cys50 reacts with the sulfhydryl group of Cys213 of another subunit to form an intermolecular disulfide bond. Mutants lacking either Cys50 or Cys213 show no thioredoxin peroxidase activity, whereas the mutant lacking Cys207 has a thioredoxin peroxidase activity

construction of shorter versions of the enzyme, Prx231 and Prx197, both exhibit thioredoxin-dependent peroxidase activity, whereas fill-length Prx264 does not
