Abstract excerpt
Thioredoxin (Trx) and glutaredoxin (Grx1) are hydrogen donors for ribonucleotide reductase, the key enzyme for deoxyribonucleotide biosynthesis. The viability of a double mutant lacking both Trx and Grx1 implies the presence of a third, unknown hydrogen donor. This paper reports the purification and characterization of two proteins with glutaredoxin activity (using hydroxyethyl disulfide as a substrate) from an...
