Abstract excerpt
In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a variety of oxidoreductases classified in the thioredoxin superfamily have been found to catalyze the formation and rearrangement of disulfide bonds. However, the precise function and specificity of the individual thioredoxin family proteins remain to be elucidated. Here, we characterize a transmembrane thioredoxin-related protein (TMX), a membrane-bound oxidoreductase in the...
