Cat No.
NATE-0917
Description
Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR/NTR), an enzyme belonging to the flavoprotein family of pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductases. Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), a component of the thioredoxin system, including thioredoxin (Trx) and NADPH, catalyzes the transfer of electrons from NADPH to Trx, acts as a reductant of disulfide-containing proteins and participates in the defense system against oxidative stresses.

Purification
Greater than 98.0% as determined by (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Unit Definition
One unit equals the change in absorbance at 412 nm per minute at 25°C using 0.2mM NADPH containing 5mM DTNB (pH 7.0).
Stability
NTR although stable at 4°C for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.
