Description
Product Characteristics: For the quantitative determination of human peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates.
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the thiol-specific antioxidant protein family. This protein is a bifunctional enzyme with two distinct active sites. It is involved in redox regulation of the cell\, it can reduce H(2)O(2) and short chain organic, fatty acid, and phospholipid hydroperoxides. It may play a role in the regulation of phospholipid turnover as well as in protection against oxidative injury. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
