- role in redox reactions through reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide
- catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions
- augments expression of IL2 receptor TAC (IL2R/P55)
Structure
- homodimer
- interacts with TXNIP through the redox-active site
- belongs to the thioredoxin family
- contains 1 thioredoxin domain
