From the The intracellular generation of reactive oxygen
species, together with the thioredoxin and glutathione systems, is
thought to participate in redox signaling in mammalian cells. The
activity of thioredoxin is dependent on the redox status of thioredoxin reductase (TR), the activity of which in turn is dependent on a
selenocysteine residue. Two mammalian TR isozymes (TR2 and TR3), in
addition to that previously characterized (TR1), have now been identified in humans and mice. All three TR isozymes contain a selenocysteine residue that is located in the penultimate position at
the carboxyl terminus and which is encoded by a UGA codon. The
generation of reactive oxygen species in a human carcinoma cell line
was shown to result in both the oxidation of the selenocysteine in TR1
and a subsequent increase in the expression of this enzyme. These
observations identify the carboxyl-terminal selenocysteine of TR1
as a cellular redox sensor and support an essential role for
mammalian TR isozymes in redox-regulated cell signaling.
