GLRX - glutaredoxin Gene
Also Known as GRX; GRX1
Species: Homo sapiens
About GLRX
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants) and 250 orthologues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 54.1), small intestine (RPKM 45.6) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the glutaredoxin family. The encoded protein is a cytoplasmic enzyme catalyzing the reversible reduction of glutathione-protein mixed disulfides. This enzyme highly contributes to the antioxidant defense system. It is crucial for several signalling pathways by controlling the S-glutathionylation status of signalling mediators. It is involved in beta-amyloid toxicity and Alzheimer's disease. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
