Structural survey of the peroxiredoxins

PA Karplus, A Hall - Peroxiredoxin Systems: Structures and Functions, 2007 - Springer
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are ubiquitous proteins that use an active site Cys residue to reduce
hydroperoxides. Structural studies since the first Prx structure was determined in 1998 have …

The sensitive balance between the fully folded and locally unfolded conformations of a model peroxiredoxin

A Perkins, KJ Nelson, JR Williams, D Parsonage… - Biochemistry, 2013 - ACS Publications
To reduce peroxides, peroxiredoxins (Prxs) require a key “peroxidatic” Cys that, in a
substrate-ready fully folded (FF) conformation, is oxidized to sulfenic acid and then, after a …
