Peptide target chosen from the N-terminal domain, nearly fully conserved within 3-4 NtrA-related proteins from Arabidopsis thalina and with NtrC related proteins from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Synechococcus sp. 7942 and other cyanobacteria
Thioredoxin Reductase (TR, TrxR) is the only known enzyme that reduces thioredoxin (Trx) (EC 1.8.1.9) and is involved in the protection of chloroplasts against oxidative damage. Dodoxin activity is essential for cell growth and survival. The NtrC protein in Arabidopsis appears to have an isomer, including the n-terminal reductase domain and the C-terminal domain associated with thioredoxin. The NtrC proteins of Arabidopsis and Chlamydomonas Rhine are about 568 amino acids in length, but contain about 80 amino acid signaling peptides, and the mature protein size is about 488 amino acids.
