Peroxiredoxin 6 shares the basic enzymatic functions that characterize this family, but also exhibits several unique and crucial activities. These include the ability to reduce phospholipid hydroperoxides, phospholipase A2 activity, and an acyl transferase activity that is important in phospholipid remodeling. This book describes the available models for investigating the unique functions of PRDX6 and its role in normal physiological function, as well its roles in the pathophysiology of diseases including cancer, diseases of the eye, and male fertility. 606 $aMedicine$2bicssc 610 $aNADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) oxidase 610 $asperm capacitation 610 $aphospholipid hydroperoxide 610 $acornea 610 $aperoxidase 610 $aphospholipase A2 610 $a1-Cys Prdx 610 $aknock-in mouse 610 $adrug delivery 610 $aantioxidant activity 610 $asulfinic acid 610 $aradioprotection 610 $aspermatozoa 610 $aperoxiredoxin 6 610 $amass spectroscopic analysis 610 $aknockout mouse 610 $aphospholipase A2 activity 610 $aliposomes 610 $amitochondrial membrane potential 610 $alipid peroxidation 610 $aPLA2 activity 610 $aionizing radiation 610 $aglutathione peroxidase 610 $aPeroxiredoxin 610 $aPrdx6 structure 610 $amembrane repair 610 $asubstrate binding 610 $ainflammation 610 $areactive oxygen species 610 $aPrdx6 610 $asulfonic/sulfinic acid 610 $aFuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy 610 $aendothelium 610 $afertilization 610 $aperoxidatic cysteine 610 $athioredoxin fold 610 $aredox balance 610 $asurfactant protein A 610 $adiabetes 610 $aoxidative stress 615 7$aMedicine 700 $aFisher$b Aron B$01331910 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346679603321 996 $aPeroxiredoxin 6 as a Unique Member of the Peroxiredoxin Family$93040640 997 $aUNINA
