Target/Specificity | This TXNRD1 antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 271-305 amino acids from the Central region of human TXNRD1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | TXNRD1 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

---|---|
Synonyms | GRIM12, KDRF |
Function | Reduces disulfideprotein thioredoxin (Trx) to its dithiol- containing form (PubMed:8577704). Homodimeric flavoprotein involved in the regulation of cellular redox reactions, growth and differentiation. Contains a selenocysteine residue at the C-terminal active site that is essential for catalysis (Probable). Also has reductase activity on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (PubMed:10849437). |
Cellular Location | [Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm [Isoform 5]: Cytoplasm |
Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Expressed predominantly in Leydig cells (at protein level). Also expressed in ovary, spleen, heart, liver, kidney and pancreas and in a number of cancer cell lines |

Background
Isoform 1 may possess glutaredoxin activity as well as thioredoxin reductase activity and induces actin and tubulin polymerization, leading to formation of cell membrane protrusions. Isoform 4 enhances the transcriptional activity of estrogen receptors alpha and beta while isoform 5 enhances the transcriptional activity of the beta receptor only. Isoform 5 also mediates cell death induced by a combination of interferon-beta and retinoic acid.
