Purity: > 95% by SDS-PAGE Format: Liquid. In 20mM HEPES (pH7.4). Peroxiredoxin 5, also known as PRDX5, is a member of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduces hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides with reducing equivalents provided through the thioredoxin system. This protein may play an antioxidant protective role in different tissues under normal conditions and during inflammatory processes. It has been reported that PRDX5 is involved in intracellular redox signaling. Recombinant human PRDX5, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
