[[Peroxiredoxin]] (Prx) is an antioxidant enzyme.  In the Prxs the active-site Cys is oxidized to sulfenic acid hyper oxide forming a Cys-SOH intermediate.  A second Cys residue resolves the intermediate to a protein disulfide bond.  The Prxs are divided into 3 types according to their intermediate resolving mechanism: '''typical 2-Cysteine Prx''' in which the Cys-Cys bond is formed between two subunits, '''atypical 2-Cys Prx''' in which the bond is formed within one subunit and '''1-Cysteine Prx''' which uses a single Cys residue for the catalysis.
