Abstract excerpt
Selenoprotein W is widespread among pro- and eukaryotic organisms. It possesses antioxidant activity and plays pivotal roles in mammalian embryonic development and cellular functions. A very simple, prototypical selenoprotein W is SelW1 from Chlamydomonas. The U14C mutant of SelW1 was isolated and biophysically characterized. It contains an intramolecular disulfide bond and is thermally stable up to 70 °C. NMR...
