Gene Information

human ... PRDX6(9588)

General description

Peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) is a thiol-specific antioxidant protein that acts as a bifunctional enzyme. It is involved in modulating the susceptibility of beta cells to oxidative stress. Prdx6 deficiency has been linked to impaired homeostasis and cell death/apoptosis. It has also been implicated in papillary thyroid carcinomas.
Rabbit Anti-PRDX6 antibody recognizes pig, bovine, human, mouse, rat, chicken, and zebrafish PRDX6.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human PRDX6

Application

Rabbit Anti-PRDX6 antibody is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 1μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PRDX6 is a member of the thiol-specific antioxidant protein family. This protein is a bifunctional enzyme with two distinct active sites. It is involved in redox regulation of the cell; it can reduce H(2)O(2) and short chain organic, fatty acid, and phospholipid hydroperoxides. It may play a role in the regulation of phospholipid turnover as well as in protection against oxidative injury.

Peroxiredoxin (Prdx) proteins are thiol-specific antioxidants that protect cells from oxidative stress in many normal and disease states. There are six Prdx proteins expressed in mammals, each with a characteristic tissue expression, subcellular distribution and substrate specificity. Recent studies have
