Thiol Redox Systems Petra Bergstrom, Xu Zhang, Aja Harris and Ben Arentson
Outline • Glutaredoxin • Thioredoxin • Thioredoxin Reductase and Glutathione Reductase • Glutathione
Glutaredoxin (Grx)(thioltransferase) • Reduction of protein disulfides 2. Reduction of glutathionylated
Dithiol mechanisms • R-S2 + Grx-(SH)2 → R-(SH)2 + Grx-S2 • Grx-S2 + 2GSH → Grx-(SH)2 + GSSH • R-S-SG + Grx-(SH)2 → R-(SH) + Grx-S-SG • Grx-S-SG + GSH → Grx-(SH)2 + GSSG Monothiolmechanisms

Grx1 ch5q14, 12 kDa) Active site: CPYC Grx2 (ch1q31.2-31.3, 18 kDa) Active site: CSYC Grx2
Three protein targets of glutaredoxin. • De-glutathionylation of Actin-SSG • De-glutathionylation of NF1 • De-glutathionylation of ASK-1 and Akt Shelton et al. 2005
Human Thioredoxin (hTrx) & Isoforms • 12 kDa • Conserved active site sequence- • Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys • hTrx1-cytosol and nucleus • hTrx2-mitochondria • Separate gene • Both are essential

Thioredoxin • Maintains a reduced environment in cytosol of cells with a low redox potential • Regenerate reduced forms of Msrs and Prxs • Stress inducible antioxidant factor
Thioredoxin Reductase • Catalyzes the reduction of oxidized Trx to its reduced form by NADPH • Active site - Cys-Sec-Gly-OH Biterova et al (2005) PNAS. 102:15018-15023. Sandalova et al (2001) PNAS. 98:9533-9538.
Reactions and Functions of TrxR • TrxR1-cytosolic • TrxR2-mitochondrial Mustacich et al (2000) Biochem J. 346:1-8.
Glutaredoxin • Catalyzes reduction of proteins that are thiolated by GSH • Recycled to GSH via recycling system of NADPH and GR • 2 isoforms in mammals- Grx1 (cytosolic) and Grx2 (mitochondrial/nuclear) • GR reduces GSSG to GSH at the expense of NADPH
Glutathione Reductase Structure • GR activities found in mitochondrial and cytoplasm Karplus et al (1989) J.Mol.Biol. 210: 163-180. Schulz et al (1978) Nature. 273: 120-124.
Glutathione (GSH) • A tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine • Found primarily in eukaryotes and gram-negative bacteria • ~90% of intracellular glutathione is found in cytoplasm • Remaining 10% is split between mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus
GSH Continued • Primary function is maintenance of intracellular redox homeostasis via protection versus ROS and RNS http://bcn.boulder.co.us/health/rmeha/glut11.gif

Glutathione Formation and Degradation 1 2 3 4 • Glutamate Cysteine Ligase • GSH Synthetase • γ-Glutamyl Transpeptidase • Dipeptidase Wang, W. and Ballatori N.

Glutathionylation • Post-translational modification where GSH is attached to protein via disulfide bond • Involved in regulation of a variety of regulatory, structural, and metabolic proteins Dalle-Donne I, Rossi R, Giustarini D, Colombo R, Milzani A (2007) S-glutathionylation in Protein Redox Regulation.
