This gene encodes a member of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides. The encoded protein may play an antioxidant protective role in cells, and may contribute to the antiviral activity of CD8(+) T-cells. This protein may have a proliferative effect and play a role in cancer development or progression. Four transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.

Function:
Involved in redox regulation of the cell. Reduces peroxides with reducing equivalents provided through the thioredoxin system but not from glutaredoxin. May play an important role in eliminating peroxides generated during metabolism. Might participate in the signaling cascades of growth factors and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by regulating the intracellular concentrations of H(2)O(2). Reduces an intramolecular disulfide bond in GDPD5 that gates the ability to GDPD5 to drive postmitotic motor neuron differentiation.
Subunit:
Homodimer; disulfide-linked, upon oxidation. May form heterodimers with AOP2. Interacts with GDPD5; forms a mixed-disulfide with GDPD5 (By similarity).
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Melanosome.
Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated on Thr-90 during the M-phase, which leads to a more than 80% decrease in enzymatic activity.
Similarity:
Belongs to the AhpC/TSA family.
Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.
