| Description: | Peroxiredoxin 2, also known as PRDX2, is a member of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides. Peroxiredoxin 2 may play an antioxidant protective role in cells, and may contribute to the antiviral activity of CD8 (+) T-cells. If Peroxiredoxin 2 protection is inadequate against peroxidases, the resulting protein and DNA damage may result in neurological disease such as Alzheimer's or DNA damage leading to cancer. Recombinant human Peroxiredoxin 2 protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography. |
