Background
TXNRD2(Thioredoxin reductase 2), also known as TRXR2, TR3, SELZ, or TR-BETA, Thioredoxin reductases, are selenocysteine(sec)-containing flavoenzymes that maintain thioredoxins, small proteins that catalyze redox reactions, in the reduced state using the reducing power of NADPH. By STS analysis and genomic sequence analysis, respectively, Miranda-Vizuete et al.(1999) and Sun et al.(1999) mapped the TXNRD2 gene to chromosome 22q11.2. Miranda-Vizuete et al.(1999) mapped the mouse gene to chromosome 16. Gasdaska et al.(1999) showed that TXNRD2 was a thioredoxin reductase that could directly reduce proteins such as insulin.
