ID 1.8.98.2 DE sulfiredoxin. AN peroxiredoxin-(S-hydroxy-S-oxocysteine) reductase. CA [protein]-dithiol + ATP + S-hydroxy-S-oxy-L-cysteinyl-[peroxiredoxin] = CA [protein]-disulfide + ADP + phosphate + S-hydroxy-L-cysteinyl- CA [peroxiredoxin]. CC -!- In the course of the reaction of EC 1.11.1.15, its cysteine residue CC is alternately oxidized to the sulfenic acid, S-hydroxycysteine, CC and reduced back to cysteine. CC -!- Occasionally the S-hydroxycysteine residue is further oxidized to the CC sulfinic acid S-hydroxy-S-oxocysteine, thereby inactivating the CC enzyme. CC -!- The reductase provides a mechanism for regenerating the active form CC of peroxiredoxin, i.e. the peroxiredoxin-(S-hydroxycysteine) form. CC -!- Apparently the reductase first catalyzes the phosphorylation of the CC -S(O)-OH group by ATP to give -S(O)-O-P, which is attached to the CC peroxiredoxin by a cysteine residue, forming an -S(O)-S- link between CC the two enzymes. CC -!- Attack by a thiol splits this bond, leaving the peroxiredoxin as the CC sulfenic acid and the reductase as the thiol.
