thioredoxin reductase 1, cytoplasmic; TR; gene associated with retinoic & interferon-induced mortality 12 protein; GRIM-12; gene associated with retinoic & IFN-induced mortality 12 protein; KM-102-derived reductase-like factor; thioredoxin reductase TR1 (TXNRD1, GRIM12, KDRF)

Function: 1) thioredoxin + NADP(+) thioredoxin disulfide + NADPH 2) active site is a redox-active disulfide bond 3) the selenocysteine residue is also essential for catalytic activity 4) isoform 1 may possess glutaredoxin activity as well as thioredoxin reductase activity & induces actin & tubulin polymerization, leading to formation of cell membrane protrusions 5) isoform 4 enhances the transcriptional activity of estrogen receptor alpha & estrogen receptor beta 6) isoform 5 enhances transcriptional activity of the beta receptor only 7) isoform 5 also mediates cell death induced by a combination of interferon-beta & retinoic acid 8) ISGylated (probable) 9) interacts with HERC5 Cofactor: binds 1 FAD per subunit Structure: - homodimer - he N-terminus of isoform 5 is blocked - the N-terminal glutaredoxin domain found in isoform 1 does not contain the C-P-Y-C redox-active motif normally found in glutaredoxins & has been found to be inactive in classical glutaredoxin assays - belongs to the class-I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family - contains 1 glutaredoxin domain - contains redox-active disulfide bond - contains selenocysteine residue Compartment: - cytoplasm (putative) - isoform 4: cytoplasm, nucleus Alternative splicing: named isoforms=6 Expression: - isoform 1 - expressed predominantly in Leydig cells (at protein level) - also expressed in ovary, spleen, heart, liver, kidney & pancreas & in a number of cancer cell lines - induced by estradiol or testosterone in HeLa cells - isoform 4 - widely expressed - highest levels in kidney, testis, uterus, ovary, prostate, placenta & fetal liver - isoform 5 is induced by a combination of interferon-beta & retinoic acid (at protein level)
