Product Description
Peroxiredoxin-4 Human Recombinant
Overview
PRDX4 is an antioxidant enzyme that is part of the peroxiredoxin family. PRDX4 is localized to the cytoplasm. PRDX4 reduces hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides to water and alcohol with the use of reducing equivalents derived from thiol-containing donor molecules. PRDX4 has a regulatory part in the activation of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. PRDX4 participates in redox regulation of the cell. PRDX4 regulates the activation of NF-kappa-B in the cytosol by a modulation of I-kappa-B-alpha phosphorylation.
Biological Activity
Specific activity: approximately 230-310 pmole/min/µg.Enzymatic activity was confirmed by measuring the remaining peroxide after incubation of PRDX4 and peroxide for 20 min at room temperature. Specific activity is defined as the amount of hydroperoxide that 1ug of enzyme can reduce at 25 C for 1 minute.
