ab15571-100ul，Anti-Peroxiredox

Peroxiredoxin 1 also known as PAG plays an important role as an antioxidant enzyme. It is part of the peroxiredoxin family with a molecular mass of around 22 kDa. This protein helps reduce hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and corresponding alcohols using reducing equivalents provided by thiol-containing donor molecules. Peroxiredoxin 1/PAG expresses widely in human tissues and cells including liver and erythrocytes reflecting its involvement in cellular redox regulation./ Biological function summary/ Peroxiredoxin 1 helps maintain cellular homeostasis by protecting cells from oxidative stress. It forms homodimers or interacts with other proteins to propagate cellular responses to changes in redox state. As an important member of the antioxidant defense mechanism it contributes to cellular signaling through modulation of hydrogen peroxide signaling pathways. The protein also plays a role in cell proliferation and apoptosis making it significant for cellular health and disease prevention./
