DESCRIPTION

Also known as PRDX3_HUMAN, PRDX3, AOP1. Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides (PubMed:7733872, PubMed:17707404). Acts synergistically with MAP3K13 to regulate the activation of NF-kappa-B in the cytosol (PubMed:12492477). Homodimer; disulfide-linked, upon oxidation. 6 homodimers assemble to form a ring-like dodecamer (PubMed:17707404, PubMed:27238969). Interacts with NEK6 (PubMed:20873783). Interacts with LRRK2 (PubMed:21850687). Interacts with MAP3K13 (PubMed:12492477). Interacts with RPS6KC1 (via PX domain) (PubMed:15750338).
