Structural insights into thioredoxin-2: a component of malaria parasite protein secretion machinery
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionTHIO2_PLAF7 Participates in various redox reactions through the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide and catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions (PubMed:16910770, PubMed:22355694). As part of the translocon PTEX complex, plays a role in the export of parasite proteins into the host erythrocyte (By similarity). The translocon PTEX complex is a multi-protein machinery resident in the parasite parasitophorous vacuolar membrane, responsible for protein secretion into host cells (PubMed:19536257). May contribute to the unfolding of proteins containing the PEXEL localization motif before their passage through the translocon or regulate the PTEX complex function (PubMed:19536257).[UniProtKB:A0A509AQW5][1] [2] [3] [4] See AlsoReferences
