Thioredoxin-dependent thiol peroxidase (Tpx) from Escherichia coli represents a group of
antioxidant enzymes that are widely distributed in pathogenic bacterial species and which
belong to the peroxiredoxin (Prx) family. Bacterial Tpxs are unique in that the location of the
resolving cysteine (CR) is different from those of other Prxs. E. coli Tpx (EcTpx) shows
substrate specificity toward alkyl hydroperoxides over H 2 O 2 and is the most potent
reductant of alkyl hydroperoxides surpassing AhpC and BCP, the other E. coli Prx members …
