Abstract

All living organisms contain redox systems involving thioredoxins (Trx), proteins featuring an extremely conserved and reactive active site that perform thiol-disulfide interchanges with disulfide bridges of target proteins. In photosynthetic organisms, numerous isoforms of Trx coexist, as revealed by sequencing of Arabidopsis genome. The specific functions of many of them are still unknown. In an attempt to find new molecular targets of Trx in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, an affinity column carrying a cytosolic Trx h mutated at the less reactive cysteine of its active site was used to trap Chlamydomonas proteins that form mixed disulfides with Trx. The major protein bound to the column was identified by amino-acid sequencing and mass spectrometry as a thioredoxin-dependent 2Cys peroxidase. Isolation and sequencing of its gene revealed that this peroxidase is most likely a chloroplast protein with a high homology to plant 2Cys peroxiredoxins. It is shown that the Chlamydomonas peroxiredoxin (Ch-Prx1) is active with various thioredoxin isoforms, functions as an antioxidant toward reactive oxygen species (ROS), and protects DNA against ROS-induced degradation. Expression of the peroxidase gene in Chlamydomonas was found to be regulated by light, oxygen concentration, and redox state. The data suggest a role for the Chlamydomonas Prx in ROS detoxification in the chloroplast.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
