The N-terminus of the sequence is processed into a mature form that lacks residues Met-151 and Asn-152 at the N-terminus.; Name=6; Synonyms=VI; IsoId=Q16881-6; Sequence=VSP_031559; Name=7; IsoId=Q16881-7; Sequence=VSP_053819; Note=No experimental confirmation.;
Catalytic ActivityThioredoxin + NADP(+) = thioredoxin disulfide + NADPH.
CofactorName=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692; Note=Binds 1 FAD per subunit.;
DomainThe N-terminal glutaredoxin domain found in isoform 1 does not contain the C-P-Y-C redox-active motif normally found in glutaredoxins and has been found to be inactive in classical glutaredoxin assays. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15379556}.
FunctionIsoform 1 may possess glutaredoxin activity as well as thioredoxin reductase activity and induces actin and tubulin polymerization, leading to formation of cell membrane protrusions. Isoform 4 enhances the transcriptional activity of estrogen receptors alpha and beta while isoform 5 enhances the transcriptional activity of the beta receptor only. Isoform 5 also mediates cell death induced by a combination of interferon-beta and retinoic acid. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15199063, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18042542, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8577704, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9774665}.
InductionIsoform 5 is induced by a combination of interferon- beta and retinoic acid (at protein level). Isoform 1 is induced by estradiol or testosterone in HeLa cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9774665}.
InteractionQ03135:CAV1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-716617, EBI-603614; P03372:ESR1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-9080335, EBI-78473; Q92731:ESR2; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-9080335, EBI-78505;
MiscellaneousThe thioredoxin reductase active site is a redox- active disulfide bond. The selenocysteine residue is also essential for catalytic activity.
PtmISGylated. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16815975}.
PtmThe N-terminus of isoform 5 is blocked.
