Biological Activity: Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) is a selenocysteine-containing NADPH-dependent disulfide oxidoreductase derived from rat liver that utilizes NADPH to reduce oxidized thioredoxin. Thioredoxin reductase can utilize the reducing capacity of human erythrocytes to study the uptake and reduction of α-Lipoic Acid (HY-N0492), and can also be used to investigate the activation mechanism of transglutaminase 2 (TG2) in the extracellular matrix using thioredoxin[1][2][3].
